Minimum System Requirements

If you are going to upgrade standard hardware or phion netfence hardware to Barracuda NG Firewall 5.0.3, please ensure that at least 2 GB of free storage space is available on the root partition. If this minimum amount of space is not available, Barracuda Networks highly recommends to re-install the system with a larger root partition instead of upgrading. On appliances with hard disk, the upgrade package requires additionally another 2 GB of free storage space on the /phion0 partition for storing temporary data. This additional space is not necessary on Flash based appliances.
