Disk Usage Increase After Cluster Upgrade

TLDR Zach noticed an increase in disk usage after a cluster upgrade. Jason confirmed this is expected in an HA cluster due to OS-level usage.

hey team quick question, just had a cluster upgrade to higher ram and HA and my disk usage has shot up from 0.25gb (single node) to 4.5gb for each node, is this the expected behaviour?

This is expected in an HA cluster, since the disk usage now includes OS-level usage as well.

In a single node cluster, disk usage excludes OS-level usage
