The main mother node on which OpenVZ is running is going out of disk space.
This is on / and there are about 15 vps nodes. Is there any co-relation
between disk space going nil due to disk usage on the vps nodes?
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.
What can I do to prevent running out of space?
when i try to Terminate an Account this message appears
The /var partition on this server is running out of disk space. WHM operation has been temporarily suspended to prevent something bad from happening. Please ask your system admin to remove any files not in use on that partition.
i know its coz the /var is full

My server has a small SAS disk(about 73G), if I use 90% diskspace of it, is it good idea, will it harm the physical HDD?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a server with cpanel/WHM. The file system says I am using 26GB of my 40GB:

How can I find out where all the other disk space is being used?
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.
Disk sda3 (/) 100 %
I can't access via Shell to manage them, can do anything with WHM cause I receive error about no diskspace left.
How else I can remove files?
If console, is there any default url or port to access? Since they didnt gave me this info and suppor t is "somewhere...
I have some weird problems here:
Code:
# df -H

tmpfs 4.3G 0 4.3G 0% /dev/shm
/usr/tmpDSK 508M 15M 467M 4% /tmp
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?
some problems with my vps with lxadmin
let's start, problem is that i every day see more used disk space, only i use that vps for couple my domains and i nothing upload
i think that "auto backup" on my vps use disk space, where is backup stored on lxadmin vps and how to disable "auto backup"
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.
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?

Why do not ModVPS active extra disk space?
All companies for VPS active this option.

How I need 1 or 2G upgrade to next plan?
Today I check my server
the WHM not calculated the MySQL dtabases size from the account quote.
for example , let see this account
Disk Space Usage 95.92 Megabytes
MySQL Disk Space 69.77 Megabytes
Disk space available 4.08 Megabytes
While this account have max of 100MB
so this account not have about 164MB a total mysql ana disk space , so how to fix this problem?

View 11 Replies View RelatedOK so I've been in the hosting industry a very long time now and I have noticed that overselling has got more and more crazy over time. 7 years ago, 2GB of disk and 10GB bandwidth was considered overselling. Today, its common to see offers at 1000GB/1000TB.
So my question, to all you looking for web hosting, do you really think you will need all that space and bandwidth?
I'm going to let you in on a little secret. (Some might hate me for this!) Out of all my customers, 99% use less than 1GB disk and 5GB transfer.
Every hosting provider out there knows this, and will tack on a bunch of 0s to their offer to make it look more enticing . The thing is, if you aren't using the space, you aren't getting any extra value. If you come even close to the amount they offer, I am willing to bet you will be suspended faster than you can blink. This advertising tactic is very misleading and a lot of newcomers base their decision off the meaningless numbers they see. <<Snip>>
Bloggers - Think again if you believe you need anything more than 1GB of space. You could type blog posts until you are blue in the face before you come close to using 1GB(unless you incorporate a lot of videos and images)
Forum owners - Considering most forums are text based, forums use hardly any bandwidth. If you run a highly active forum, eventually you will start consuming decent amounts of disk space. However, there is no way that a shared host would allow such a forum to exist on the servers. You will be shut down before you use even a fraction of that 100gb/1000tb.
What should you consider than? If you see a host offering such impossible amounts of resources for an even more impossible price, look elsewhere. If you want a decent service, look to spend $5-10/m for a reasonable amount of disk space and bandwidth.
if a dedicated server can be used for reselling disk space?

I know there might be 2GB as swap (which I'm not seeing listed, but it should be on a different partition not listed so it should be fine), even then, where's the remainder 1.5G

Is 2GB (disk space) and 30GB (bandwidth) supposedly enough?
I've been able to contact the tech support of Futurehosting and quickly they solved all my issues (due to a new server never used before, they told me...) : they repaired the hw of machine, deleted all my previous files and reinstalled a fresh copy of Cpanel and Virtuozzo on my VPS and everything now works fine but...there is still something that is not too much clear: I've subscribed for a plan named Cpanel-Gold at the price of 39.95 $/Monthly and this plan is supplied with 20 Gb of hard disk space...now, after the fresh reinstall of Cpanel, I've found only 18 Gb of free disk space but I haven't still uploaded nothing in my VPS! After recontacting the support they answered to me that "...the cPanel/OS modification took up approximately 2GB on a new VPS as well..."
