Sophos Protection for Linux Disk space requirements/usage

Hi There,

Thank you for reaching us, related to your query would like to ask you if you could help us create a case for this query that you've post? We need to check the directory as to why it's huge. Share the case ID directly with me through DM.

User4960,

This is normal for the file system, but keep in mind that we chroot jail mount a few things that are already on the system out of /opt/sophos-spl/var/sophos-spl-comms/.  This makes it appear like they are under a differing directory, but they really aren't "extra" files that we load.

The kb here shows that we only use about 1GB on disk: https://docs.sophos.com/releasenotes/index.html?productGroupID=esg&productID=linux_protection&versionID=allVersions

Make sure to click on the "Sytsem Requirements" tab.

Gotcha, thanks Brian. I hadn't noticed the mounts before.
