Hi,

 

I have installed Fortianalyzer-VM on my Server with 50 GB storage for trial. Then I extend my storage to 500 GB and purchased 500 GB storage license from fortinet. After the license applied my storage is not increased its showing me 50 GB only. I restarted my server several times but no result. Anyone guide me what I'm doing wrong. I attached snapshot of my storage as well as license for reference.

    Hello Syed,

     

    did you run the execute lvm extend CLI Command after you increased the disk size?

    This will add the unused Storage.

    NO, I didn't run the command because I haven't seen any unused storage through "execute lvm info"

    When you look at the result of your execute lvm info you see that you are only using 80GB out of 500GB.

    Running execute lvm extend you will get 500GB

    Space issues on the FAZ are usually a headache, especially when you're trying to parse through raw log exports to see what's eating up the disk. I’ve found that sometimes the raw text exports come out with some pretty messy formatting that makes them hard to ingest into other tools for analysis.

    If you're dealing with weirdly formatted log chunks, I’ve been using this line break remover to flatten the text and clear out the extra whitespace. It makes it much easier to run a quick search or filter through the data without the clutter.
