Plesk 12.x / Linux :: No Email Regarding Disk Space Overuse?
Feb 5, 2015
I have a customer on a 250MB hosting plan and has been using approximately 450MB for the past few days but hasn't received a resource overuse email.
In my notifications I have "Resource usage limits exceeded by subscription" set to send myself and the customer an email but neither of us have received anything.
We seem to be getting 3 copies of all email notifications whenever an account is created, it seemed to happen after a server transfer but I can't see anywhere that is set up as a duplicate.
We have Plesk installed with a dedicated disk on /opt. System disk is about 20 GB, data disk is about 220 Gb.There is 190 Gb free on the data disk (mounted on /opt).
But when we try to increase allocated space for a domain, Plesk says that there's enough disk space..Is there any change or adjustement on Plesk we can do, so Plesk will check space on the good disk ?
I have Plesk 12 on Centos6.I require a list of every subscription which has consumed the most data on the server. Disk space used by the following files and directories in the subscription:
The Plesk bible only listed that this was possible through Subscriptions > Statistics. URL....However viewing the Subscriptions > Statistics is not an option because there are many subscriptions..I also have access to SSH/terminal and found a script for finding large file and directories here URL....However i rather have it in excel or HMTL format.
Whenever I am trying to take backup through Parallels Plesk (Plesk version:12.0.18 Update #53) getting an error "Error: Insufficient disk space for backup. "
Default backup location is '/var/lib/psa/dumps' with enough space (Near 1TB). Then why showing above error message?
Version Details: Version Parallels Plesk v12.0.18_build1200140811.16 os_CentOS 7 OS CentOS Linux 7.1.1503 (Core)
I want to set plesk to allow the overuse for disk space and bandwidth for my customers, but not for e-mail accounts.
If I do not allow overuse, what exactly happens when a customer exceeds the use of resources? The plesk panel immediately stops all the customer's services? Or what?
Moreover: is there a diagnostic utility to understand if the plesk panel is working correctly and is correctly installed?
I migrated from one server running Plesk 10.4.4 Update #59 to a new server running Plesk 11 which I then updated to 12.0.18 Update #32. Since moving to Plesk 12 the "Notify when disk space/traffic usage reaches" emails have been being sent to our customers set up on the server whereas previously they were sent to the server admin email address.
Does anyone know why Disk Space needs to be entered in both 'Clients' & 'Domains' in Plesk? I don't understand how that works... If I set up a client template and make this 250MB Disk Space, and then set up a new Client using this template... Next I attach them to my Domain template where I have given them unlimited Disk Space... What will they have 250MB or Unlimited?
When restoring a backup on Plesk 12, the error below is generated for some sites and the sites are only partially restored. Although the message talks about disk space, there is in fact plenty of free disk space - i.e. many GB. The backup was created on Plesk 11.5. The restore on Plesk 11.5 works.
I noticed that all the failed domains exceed the disk space allowed by their Service Plan. However, the 'Overuse is allowed' setting is selected. Strangely, I tried changing the Service Plan and retrying the backup and restore, and the same errors were generated.

I'm on PPA 11.5 MU#2 (Should upgrade to MU#3 soon). My problem is that the Usage of Disk Space for all my customers subscriptions are not calculated. I've run the daily maintenance script (which it actually runs periodically), but there's no update on the display.
What happens to subscriptions which automatically suspended because of overused monthly bandwidth , at new month ? do they automatically activate or we should activate them manually ?
And does the monthly bandwidth counter reset at first they of new month or it reset 30/31 day after subscription creation date?
I've got a server in a local colo facility. both the facility and my server are slowly falling apart. Rather than investing in hardware and then shipping it to some location and hoping it doesn't break, I've decided to investigate VPS.
What I am finding is puzzling me. Why do providers charge so much for disk space? My current old p3-733 has a 30gb drive, I could deal with about 15gb but with some 'flex' room (i.e. a virtual drive for uncompressing files or some such). It's a personal server for me and a couple of friends, it doesn't get much traffic, I don't need a heck of a lot of bandwidth, nor anything flashy, just Ubuntu 8.04. I see places offering plenty of traffic for a decent price, yet little in the way of storage. I just don't get it.
A year ago I was here wanting to trade my class C for a dedicated server. I realize now that it would be pretty difficult for providers to do this, because if I wanted to yank my class c they'd have to renumber. But if anyone is still interested, let me know.
The root filesystem is only using 917 GB while the size is 967 GB. Where has the 50 GB gone to? CentOS tells me that the diskspace is indeed full already, so I wonder where is the disappearing space?
I get this message from the shared Apache server (I have a reseller account and host about 50 sites) where one of my sites is and it says the site is almost out of space.
I only have it at 60 megs because the site itself is about 20 to 25 megs, so this should be plenty of room.
So, I emailed my hosting company and they say it's the 'analog' web statistics folder that keeps getting bigger, n bigger causing this issue.
I told them that I only use Awstats and they said "If you don't want to use 'analog' web statistics you can delete "tmp/analog" folder"
So, my question is this...how do you delete the "tmp/analog folder"?
With a VPS account from the various VPS providers out there, you can always add more disk space to your VPS. This is done in realtime without having to take the VPS down or anything like that. What kind of storage mechanism is used for this?
Is it possible to use such a storage method on a dedicated server?
I just think it would be advantageous in some dedicated server offerings to be able to continue to add disk space to a server without having to physically replace the hard drive.
I am running Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition and something is using alot of my disk space, how can I find out what folders/files are using alot of disk space (As the items may be small, but there may be lots of them).
I'm interested to know if web hosting customers would prefer unmetered disk space over metered disk space. With unmetered, you could use as much disk space as you want without worrying.
This is a poll for web hosting customers only. If you're a web host that offers unmetered hosting, I'd be interested to see your views too.
My ISP gave me the box with /usr allocated only 8G, now is 6G used. I suppose that Cpanel will take space when I create email accounts, forwarders, maybe other stuff too.
I am running a dating website and getting more and more users with every day. They can upload from 10 till 100 pictures depending of their account satatus. Server's hard disk will be full in some 5-6 months. I can not attach unlimited amount of hard disks to the same machine. What can I do in this situation?
