SYSTEM ALERT : high : Not enough space to load conent to SHM after upgrading PA820 to PanOS 10.0.3

Dear all.

I upgraded last night to PanOS 10.0.3 and this morning I'm getting error messages from the firewall:

SYSTEM ALERT : high : Not enough space to load conent to SHM

admin@xxx> show system disk-space

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/root 9.5G 2.7G 6.4G 30% /
none 2.0G 68K 2.0G 1% /dev
/dev/sda5 19G 4.1G 14G 23% /opt/pancfg
/dev/sda6 7.6G 2.0G 5.2G 29% /opt/panrepo

cgroup_root 2.0G 0 2.0G 0% /cgroup
/dev/sda8 172G 115G 48G 71% /opt/panlogs

tmpfs is indeed full.

All the usual recommendations around full disk are about other partitions.

Anybody seen similar issues?

Hi Suresh,

This seems to be a different situation.

Normal file systems are fine.

It is just a problem with tmpfs

You might need to open tac case for this as they might need to delete some files from root

Also this should not cause any performance issues on the PA.

Are you experiencing any issue on PA due to this?

Seems tmpfs is a temporary partition in PA.

Try a reboot
