We haven't modified the image size on ours, and have many more than two images. You should have plenty of room for at least 10 platform images.
I suspect that when you remove them, you're only removing them from the zpool and not from the USB. Run this command: sdcadm platform remove --all --cleanup-cache That will remove all images that are neither current or boot platform for any CN, and will remove them from the USB as well. -- Brian Bennett Systems Engineer, Cloud Operations Joyent, Inc. | www.joyent.com <http://www.joyent.com/> > On Jul 8, 2018, at 9:58 AM, Benjamin Beier <[email protected]> > wrote: > > Hello, > > until now I always had 2 platform images on the headnode USB stick. > The one that is currently running and the newer one I am updating to. > As soon as all nodes are running on the new images I can delete the old one > and later pull the next one. > > Now for the first time since I provisioned my Triton cloud I ran into a > problem with one platform image not working properly on my compute nodes. > The headnode is working properly with it, but the compute nodes not. > So essentially both images on the USB stick are in use now. > My idea was to simply pull a third platform image to see if this might work > on the compute nodes. > But I ran into an error message telling me that there is no space left on the > USB device. > > This is confusing me quite a bit, as the USB stick was provisioned exactly as > described in the Triton documentation. > The image in the usb-latest.tgz is prepared with 4 GB of size. > I copied it onto a 32 GB USB stick, but of course this does not fix (expand) > the 4 GB partition and filesystem size. > The documentation is saying nothing about expanding the 4 GB image to fit the > whole USB stick. > Nevertheless in the documentation they are always playing with 3 or more > platform images at the same time. > > To quote a statement at the bottom of the following page: > https://docs.joyent.com/private-cloud/platform-images > <https://docs.joyent.com/private-cloud/platform-images> > "Ideally, you will only keep only three platform images" > > Can someone please tell me what I am missing?
