Root partition 90% full

UTM 9.510-5 on a dedicated server with 300 Gig hard drive.

I'm getting alerts that the root disk is at 90%.  UTM updates are failing because of lack of disk space.

I read the threads on here about this and found that pgsql was at 1.6 Gigs, so I ran postgressql92 rebuild and that shrunk it.

I also deleted the /var/storage/cores from years ago.

 

To my surprise, df -h STILL reports exactly the same usage.  Not one byte different.

I ran du -shx * | sort -rh | head

pgsql shrunk to 36K.

Still out of disk space.  The only big file I could find was swapfile, taking 4 gigs.

if I go to /var/sec/chroot-afc/var/run/navl, all I see is a "socket" file.

  • This is virtually always caused by letting too many Up2Dates download without applying them.  You've probably already re-installed, so this is for others in the future.

    Look at

    du -shx /var/up2date/sys/*

    First, check some things.  As root at the command line:

    version

    cc get up2date system_download_interval

    This returns: 10 = Manual or Monthly, 0 = Every 15 mins, etc.  Note this!

    Let's set the interval to Manual:

    cc set up2date system_download_interval 10

    Now, let's go to the directory and see what we need to delete:

    cd /var/up2date/sys
    ll

    Delete enough of the newest files to free up at least one GB and run the following command:

    /sbin/auisys.plx --showdesc

    Then install in WebAdmin.  After the Up2Dates are completed, change 'Firmware download interval' back on the 'Configuration' tab or go back to the command line and set it there.
