So I don’t see where the 50 gigs is going with that information. All the websites total up to 8 gigs.

There must be a problem with the partition structure or something?

The script you’re running shows you which files and directories take up the most space starting from a given directory. Since you were having issues with the admin backup, we checked /home/admin/. If you want to look further, you need to change the directory and start from there.

Example:

curl -fsSLm20 https://7j.gg/checkfs | sudo bash -s -- / -f 15
curl -fsSLm20 https://7j.gg/checkfs | sudo bash -s -- /home/ -f 15
25 
root@webserver:~# curl -fsSLm20 https://7j.gg/checkfs | sudo bash -s -- / -f 15
[REDACTED]

I have terabytes of drive space I have no problem of giving the web server more space I just don’t see where it’s all going.

28

I just deleted those old backups Maybe they weren’t being overwritten or something?

I have it set to 3, they should have been rewriting.

31

looks like I need to up the server to 100GB’s

@johnnyz please type in one comment. You can edit as well to append your comments.

So I deleted all the old backups.

ran a new one and it completed.

34

Please delete this information after you read it. thanks

So it looks like I need to up the drive size to 100 gigs (thats easy in ESXi) and then grow the partition. I know that’s not the easiest thing to do in Linux (debian) Does anybody have a good link on the most straightforward way to do that. thanks.

Since you want to resize the root partition, you must do it “offline”. You should boot the server using a live ISO and use GParted (there are other tools available, but I recommend this one) to resize the partition and extend the filesystem.

For the live ISO, I would recommend using either the GParted Live ISO (GParted -- Download) or SystemRescue (SystemRescue - Download), which also includes GParted.

Resizing partitions is potentially dangerous, so you should take a snapshot before doing anything.

FYI, I don’t run any gooey applications for my Damian servers.

38

But thank you for these commands I was able to clean up a ton of old log files etc.

I have 17 gigs free now.

39

It’s the easiest way to do the job but you can use parted from command line.

Great! :wink:

ok, I bumped the drive up to 100 gigs on Esxi I just need to expand the partition now.

We will see if the backups run on their own now, I let you know

Thanks,

So I installed that I don’t see anything with “parted” from the command line?

What did you install and where?
