NOTE: VCF Operations for Networks was formerly named Aria Operations for Networks (AON), and prior to that was named vRealize Network Insight (vRNI).
Environment
VCF Operations for Networks 9.0.0
VCF Operations for Networks 9.0.1
Cause
VCF Operations for Networks upgrade fails because the old bundle did not get auto cleaned up during the previous upgrades hence consuming space on "/" (root) partition.
Resolution
- Execute below command for manual clean up depending on the older bundle file name on VCF Operations for Networks platform node
ubuntu@platform1:~$ sudo rm -rf /usr/share/nginx/upgradebundle/9.0.0.24694676/ ubuntu@platform1:~$ sudo rm -rf /usr/share/nginx/upgradebundle/9.0.1.24950933/ - To validate if clean/manual removal of bundle is successful run below command and it should no show any bundle folder
ubuntu@platform1:~$ ls -lrth /usr/share/nginx/upgradebundle total 0 - Now run below command to see that VCF Operations for Networks platform appliance shows "/" should show more space available
Refer below command used and output

Refer to screenshots below: - Upgrade to VCF Operations for Networks should proceeds as normal.
