Data disk cleanup process

Hans PetterJacobsen

I see that several people have had issues with the data disk filling up.

Our data disk is 290 gb and is currently only at 24% but it is increasing by 4% every day so I'm trying to find out how and when UTM cleans up the data disk.

Can anyone point me in the right direction since I haven't found any documentation yet.

 

Regards

    Hi Hans,

    Take SSH to UTM and execute the command "df -kh"

    Monitor the troubling directory.

    Thanks

    This has become an increasing problem that someone has to manually Delete the Data Disk by doing the following.

    Web Protection - Filtering Options - Misc - Clear Cache.

    Usually I do this manually every time I receive e-mail alerts but this time I decided to wait and see if UTM cleaned up after it self.

    Why does UTM not clean up the data disk when Caching is not enabled.

    Hans Petter, when you see this message, what are you cleaning up?  As Sachin suggested, try df -h to see where to look, and then use du -shx * on the implicated sub-directories.  Is that where you've been cleaning up?  If you really do have a 290GB data disk, I can't imagine what would be gobbling over 10GB per day.

    Cheers - Bob
