Use the local Gateway database to store audit records.
Send high concurrency large messages. By default, the Gateway spools messages over a particular threshold (10 MB by default) to disk. If users are sending many messages of that size or larger, the disk may fill up during processing.
Configure the Gateway to use larger and more log files.
Configure a clustered environment that creates additional log files and synchronizes logs within MySQL.

Create and install a new virtual disk onto the Virtual Appliance. See this page from the VMware documentation for details. You may need to consult the vendor of the applicable virtualization platform for more specific instructions.

Restart the Gateway appliance and access a command prompt.

Run this command to display the existing list of partitions:

# fdisk -l

You should see output similar to the following.

Note:

The following output is an example with an existing partitioned disk (

/dev/sda

) and a new unpartitioned disk (

/dev/sdb

). Some data has been removed for brevity and other data may be different based on your deployment.

Disk /dev/sda: 53.7 GB, 53687091200 bytes

Start the disk partitioning tool and target the newly installed disk:

# fdisk /dev/sdb

This command opens up a new command shell. Select the appropriate option by choosing the appropriate alphanumeric option and then pressing

Enter

.

Select option

N

to add a new partition.

Select option

P

to set the new partition as the primary.

Enter

1

to set the partition number.

Press

Enter

to accept the default starting cylinder.

Press

Enter

to accept the default ending cylinder.

Select option

T

to change the partition type.

Specify

8e

to change the type to "Linux LVM".

Select option

W

to write the changes to disk.

Initialize the new disk partition:

# pvcreate /dev/sdb1

Add a physical volume to an existing volume group:

# vgextend vg00 /dev/sdb1

Expand the size of the database tablespace partition:

# lvextend -r -l +100%FREE /dev/mapper/vg00-lv_db /dev/sdb1

To distribute the free space among different drives, specify the size for one specific drive. For example, to add only 40GB to root (out of the 100GB space added to the server), use this command:

# lvextend -L +40G -r /dev/mapper/vg00-lv_root
