In the current volume: 1. Modify global_attributes file. * The global_attributes file is located at /shared/.tmi_config, so modify global_attributes file by using vi command. From: {"TMI_VOLUME_FIX_VAR_MIB":"500","TMI_VOLUME_FIX_CONFIG_MIB":"500"} To: {"TMI_VOLUME_FIX_VAR_MIB":"3000","TMI_VOLUME_FIX_CONFIG_MIB":"500"} 2. Install version. 3. Modify global_attributes file to back original value. 4. Switchboot to newly installed volume. 5. To change /var to 3 GB and from tmsh, run the following command: modify /sys disk directory /var new-size 3145728 6. Reboot.
