Incorrect Disk Space

Post by camarchepas » Thu Jun 15, 2023 10:04 am

Hi guys,

I have set up an eve-ng VM on vSphere with 205 GB of allocated disk space.

However when I log in to the CLI, eve-ng only reports 58GB of disk space and unfortunately I seem to have reached the max.

SO why does it tell me it only has 58GB of disk space when it really has 205 ? And how can I fix that ? Thanks for any help.

It is because you did not follow our documentation...
deploying OVF on the esxi default is 60GB HDD, and to expand it you should read:
https://www.eve-ng.net/index.php/docume ... on-eve-vm/

And you did mistake, exactly and simply adding esxi hdd space.. Read link above.

Another method, which is mostly recommended for esxi to install EVE from ISO. It is also is given in the cookbook.
This way you can set any HDD size you like...

Also please avoid use:
172.29.129.0/24 (NAT Interface)
172.29.130.0/24 (Cluster subnet)
172.17.0.0/16 (Dockers consoles)
