4. Check the cloud disk related in Alibaba Cloud ECS, /dev/vda1 is the system disk, the SSD cloud disk, and its size is 20 GB. /dev/vdb1 is a data disk, which is a normal cloud disk, and its size is 40GB. From this, the disk usage is 11 GB / 20 GB = 55%, and 17 GB / 40 GB = 43%. There is no need to expand. as shown in Figure 4
