Disk Space Requirement for R81.10 to R81.20 Upgrade r any Upgrade at all

Hi All,

Am looking for documentation from Checkpoint regarding Disk Space Requirement for Upgrades.

Am planning to upgrade Firewall from R81.10 to R81.20.

Kind Regards,

Olu

Disk space requirements are documented in the Release Notes: https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/R81.20/WebAdminGuides/EN/CP_R81.20_RN/Content/Topics-RN/Support...

Root has to have at least 20GB free for an upgrade to succeed.
There also needs to be enough unallocated space to take a snapshot of the root partition.

Thanks a Million.

Phoneboy is 100% right, thats an official doc. I will say though I had done upgrades in the lab with less than 10 GB free in root partition and worked fine, BUT, I would NOT recommend you take that risk in production, no way. var/log partition, I like to have at least 30 GB available. You can always delete the package afterwards from /var/log/CPda/repository 

Best regards,

Andy
