Checking catalog storage space

Use the commands documented here to determine how much catalog space is available before upgrading. This helps you determine how much space the updated catalog may take up.

Compare how much space the catalog currently uses against space that is available in the same directory:

1. Use the du command to determine how much space the catalog directory currently uses:

   $ du -s -BG v_vmart_node0001_catalog
   2G      v_vmart_node0001_catalog
   

2. Determine how much space is available in the same directory:

   $ df -BG v_vmart_node0001_catalog
   Filesystem     1G-blocks  Used Available Use% Mounted on
   /dev/sda2            48G   19G       26G  43% /
