Hi

 

I want to extend my Forti Analyzer disk but want to confirm that, I need to take backup first or it can be extended without taking backup of logs.

 

Regards,

MK

I did it before without taking a backup and I did not encounter any problems. But it is useful to be careful against Murphy's law.

Hi, 

 

there is no need to backup, but as a good practice you should backup your configuration and take a snapshot, after extending and validate the normal operation you can delete the snapshot
