Disk usage on a FGT60C at 98.5%, where to look for disk useage detail
Hello,
I got an warning that disk space is full and when i look to the System Resources, it does indeed say that Disk Usage is at 98.5% and we have gotten some complaints today that the network was performing poorly.
I am trying to understand where and how the disk space is used but haven' t found a good way to do it. I thought it would be logs, but then again logging is not turned on.
Firmware : v5.0,build0271 (GA Patch 6)
# get log disk setting
status : disable
# diag sys logdisk usage
Total HD usage: 7153MB/7262MB
Total HD logging space: 2178MB
Total HD logging space for each vdom: 2178MB
HD logging space usage for vdom " root" : 0MB/2178MB
Any good hints on where further to look for how the disk space is used would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Ants.

Check the Disk Management section under System->Config->Advance.

Hey, thanks for the tips.
The advanced section looks like this and it shows me only the size but not where the rest of the disk space is used.
# show wanopt settings
config wanopt settings
set host-id " default-id"
end
show wanopt storage
config wanopt storage
edit " FLASH"
set size 3900
next
end
Thanks a lot,
Ants.

And this is the 98.5% that kind of worries me of which i' m not able to find a " good" explanation
I thought it might have been some temp usage and also tried rebooting. But still same result.
Thanks for any further good tips,
Ants.

I suggest formatting the disk logging device (the format link next to Flash) then check disk usage; perthaps try allocating more storage to disk logging. (Formating the disk logging device will reboot the fgt device btw.)
