Hey!
the last question for today! :D
qubes is really great, but i want to understand some things, that are
new for me.
i don't understand the storage occupancy in Qubes OS.
I can give the home-folder more space, but where can i understand how
much space i have already used? where can i see the whole storage usage?
and how can i add new SSD to the special VM (for example "work")?
thanks for help!
When you expand an appVM's storage, you're really changing the maximum
limit. The space isn't allocated from dom0 storage until its used (and
deletions will cause the space to be returned to dom0).
Normal space reporting tools for Linux will show you the overall space
and usage in dom0. For instance, I use the KDE disk space widget on my
desktop.
You can attach additional storage to a VM by right-clicking on it in
Qubes Manager and using the attach/detach menu. Or you can use
'qvm-block' command in dom0. Unfortunately, Qubes doesn't have a way to
permanently attach additional volumes to template-based VMs, so this
always has to be done manually or via a udev script, etc.
