Dear members,

I have a Zenoss core v3.21 installed on Ubuntu OS(VM). The totartition size is 80GB. I am facing an issue with data.fs file as it is getting very large day by day currently its 60GB and my partition total volume is about to end. Please suggest resolution to this issue. Some snapshots are attached.

Ismail,

You should be able to reduce the size of data.fs with the following command:

/opt/zenoss/bin/zeopack -h localhost -p 8100

HOWEVER:

You will need more free space than you currently have to perform the pack operation.  If 60 of your 80GB partition is currently in use by data.fs, I have to assume that the rest of the OS and Zenoss files are taking up a significant portion of the remaining 20GB.  You will want to expand the partition before beginning the pack operation to give it a chance to complete successfully.  

Once complete (check $ZENHOME/log/zeo.log), you can add this command as a cron job to run weekly.

$ 0 0 * * * bash -lc '/opt/zenoss/bin/zeopack -h localhost -p 8100'

Let me know if you run into any issues?

Thanks alot Michael. However,  i am unable to find zeopack file in the /opt/zenoss/bin/zeopack directory.  Instead it is located at below location. Will it be ok to execute it from here?

Ismail,

My apologies!  I believe my sample commands were from a RHEL or CentOS installation where the install directory is /opt/zenoss.  If your Ubuntu-based installation uses /usr/local/zenoss, you should be able to substitute that path.
