| Description | The article describes steps to extend the size of the /opt partition on a FortiSIEM node. |
| Scope | FortiSIEM. |
| Solution |
For example:
lsblk NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT ... sdb 8:16 0 100G 0 disk ├─sdb1 8:17 0 22.4G 0 part [SWAP] └─sdb2 8:18 0 68.9G 0 part /opt ...
yum -y install cloud-utils-growpart gdisk
growpart <disk> <parition number>
For example:
growpart /dev/sdb 2 CHANGED: partition=2 start=50782208 old: size=144529408 end=195311616 new: size=473505759 end=524287967
For example:
xfs_growfs /dev/sdb2
meta-data=/dev/sdb2 isize=512 agcount=4, agsize=4516544 blks = sectsz=512 attr=2, projid32bit=1 = crc=1 finobt=1, sparse=1, rmapbt=0 = reflink=1 data = bsize=4096 blocks=18066176, imaxpct=25 = sunit=0 swidth=0 blks naming =version 2 bsize=4096 ascii-ci=0, ftype=1 log =internal log bsize=4096 blocks=8821, version=2 = sectsz=512 sunit=0 blks, lazy-count=1 realtime =none extsz=4096 blocks=0, rtextents=0 data blocks changed from 18066176 to 59188219
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on ... /dev/sdb2 226G 6.1G 220G 3% /opt
Note: Although this process is valid to increase /opt size, in FortiSIEM's normal operation, a full /opt disk could be a potential issue. If /opt disk continues growing, it should be appropriate to check through a Support ticket.
