'''Solution'''  



There are two partitions /var and /opt are mounted differently based on the initial system configuration:



 • for Disk-based systems both the /var and /opt partitions are mounted on the hard disk (wd0) 



 • for Hybrid systems (local Check Point logging on HDD) the /opt partition is mounted on v9fs and the /var partition is mounted on the optional hard disk (wd1) ( this assumes the customer has previously enabled the optional HDD for local logging -- see article 1350934) 



 • for Flash-only systems the /var and /opt partitions are mounted on v9fs ( on-board memory file system)




Please use the "df -k" CLI command to verify your configuration as shown in the examples below. These apply to IP390, IP560 and IP12XX.
