Hi team,

Hi,

Use the command df with the switch -h or -H to understand the disk space you have.
Then allocate a small amount less than that to storagenode.

It has been known to overrun in the past, so 10% spare has been advised.

Good luck

@skibboo Use df -h for displaying sizes in GiB/TiB, or df -H for displaying sizes in the international system GB/TB. Nodes accept both notations so you’re free to choose the one you like when configuring it.
