AWS Large Instance: /mnt does not show all the space that should be available
- by Emile Baizel
I just created a Large (m1.large) 64 bit instance which comes with 850 GB instance storage. Look at the Large Instance http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/
A 'df -h' from the root folder gives me the output below. The /mnt is where I'm thinking the instance storage is but here it is only showing me 414G. I have set up two servers and both are showing the same numbers.
root@ip-11-11-11-11:/# df -h
