Hi All,
I just completed the upgrade to 23.1 and seem to be up and running fine. I virtualise my OPNsense box using Proxmox and made a backup of the VM before and after the upgrade.
Right before the upgrade, the complete backup was ~1GB. Compression is involved here but I always remember the file system, according to OPNsense itself, occupied around 1.7GB. After the upgrade (and cleaning of some left over logs), OPNsense is again reporting around 1.7GB used by the file system. However, backing up of the VM from within Proxmox yields a backup size of almost 2.4GB! How can this be?
A quick df -h from OPNsense's shell reveals that there seems to be a new filesystem mounted and I'm thinking this is where all that extra disk usage is coming from.
root@OPNsense:/var # df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity Mounted on
/dev/gpt/rootfs 7.5G 1.7G 5.2G 24% /
devfs 1.0K 1.0K 0B 100% /dev
/dev/gpt/efifs 256M 1.7M 254M 1% /boot/efi
devfs 1.0K 1.0K 0B 100% /var/dhcpd/dev
devfs 1.0K 1.0K 0B 100% /var/unbound/dev
/usr/local/lib/python3.9 7.5G 1.7G 5.2G 24% /var/unbound/usr/local/lib/python3.9
This seems really strange to me so if anyone can share their thoughts, that would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Chris
It's for DNSBL Python module.
If you use "df -hT" you can see it its type is special "nullfs" which is an elaborate symlink and not more. :)

Aha! Thank you Franco, that's good to know. Appreciate the help.
