I removed all my fused server but one. probably did not need to do that but...

I did go to admin guide and found
Truncate Polled Data
Location /usr/local/nagiosfusion/scripts/truncate_polled.php
Usage ./truncate_polled.php

Use this script to empty all of the polled data from all remote servers. USE WITH CAUTION. The data that is lost is not recoverable.

are they any purging parameters I Can look at to avoid this in the future?

I think for us to know what's happening, we need to find whatever files are filling up. Your mariadb log looked like you have general logging and tracing enabled. Can I see the output of
And then, what I normally do to find suspicious files is:
Which gives something similar to the following output:
And then I would find the largest of those (in this case /usr) and I would run the same du -h --max-depth=1 against that directory. And then all the way down until I find the one that is most full.

Finding this can help us identify the issue, I believe.

[root@ny17u3030 scripts]# ls -alh /var/log/mariadb

I will keep an eye on files as you suggest

thanks

Let us know if you have any further questions or it is OK to close this topic. Thank you!

well -
is there anything wrong with doing the following on regular basis?

Truncate Polled Data
Location /usr/local/nagiosfusion/scripts/truncate_polled.php
Usage ./truncate_polled.php

It shouldn't be a problem if you don't mind wiping off the logs once in a while.

Thanks

Good to close
