File system /storage/seat is low on database storage space.


VCSA 6.7 error related to disk space  

VMware has this KB with the steps to increase the Disk on the VCSA

https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2145603

=================================================

below the same steps for your convenience, 

  • when we checked the VAMI interface we saw below error
File system /storage/seat is low on database storage space.
Increase the size of disk /storage/seat or decrease the data retention.




when we checked the VCSA /storage/seat reached 98%, which caused vpxd services to stop by the design to prevent further data corruption.

Resolution

  • identify the disk -
df -h
/dev/mapper/seat_vg-seat          25G  23G 500M 98% /storage/seat

lsblk
sdh               8:112 0  25G 0 disk
└─seat_vg-seat         252:8  0  25G 0 lvm /storage/seat

lsscsi
[2:0:8:0]  disk  VMware  Virtual disk   1.0  /dev/sdh

  • increased the disk space by 15GB
  • used /usr/lib/applmgmt/support/scripts/autogrow.sh to grow the file system

  • restart the appliance and confirm vCenter is working

autogrow.sh makes things really easy with VCSA 6.7 disk expansion
