Hi Guys,

 

We are using an FortiSandbox VM (VMWare) with an 2TB Thin provisioned disk. (best practice from manuel)

 

After an while now he consumed the complete 2TB disk and is now suspended.

When we look to the actual disk usage its about 80 GB, does anyone know how we can free up the disk space (zero out) and give back the space to VMWare?

 

Thanks in advance

    Hi Sebastiaan,

    have you followed this guide: http://docs.fortinet.com/uploaded/files/2107/fortisandbox-vm-vmware-install-guide.pdf

     

    See page 13:

    "if you configure the virtual appliance’s storage repository to be internal (i.e. local, on its own vDisk), resize the vDisk before powering on.

    The FortiSandbox VM package that you downloaded includes pre-sized VMDK (Virtual Machine Disk Format) files of 1GB for disk 1 (for the OS) and 60GB for disk 2 data, which is large enough for demonstration...................."

     

    let me know

    Regards

    Andrea
