Adding Additional Storage (Optional)
It is possible to add additional storage to FortiManager after launch. Create an EBS storage and attach it to the FortiManager instance on EC2 console, then access FortiManager via the CLI window on the GUI or SSH to run the command exec lvm extend to add the storage.
For details, refer to http://kb.fortinet.com/kb/viewContent.do?externalId=FD34953.
- In the EC2 console, create a disk volume and attach it to the FortiManager EC2 instance.
- In this example, let's create and attach two volumes. Volumes will be added to FortiManager without rebooting.
- Log into FortiManager using the GUI or SSH. If using the GUI, open the CLI.
- Run
exec lvm infoto check the disk status. Two volumes have been added and are Unused.
- Run
exec lvm extend. Reboot the system as instructed.
- Log into the FortiManager GUI. Go to the Dashboard and verify you now have enlarged disk space under System Resources > Disk Usage.
