I have tried several times to expand the disk space on our NNA server to no avail. Each time I end up reverting the VM to the previous day to recover it. Instead I am willing to trim back the data being collected to keep the system as-is till I can get a new VM spun up, config exported and imported into the new appliance (with more disk space allocated) but I am not seeing the disk space being recovered when I trim back the retention, even after a reboot of the NNA appliance. Is there a tool or cron to run that will do the trimming of the data on disk other than me going into each collected item and hand-removing old data?

You need to stop then start the source you modified and it should remove the excess data.

Ok thanks. I'll give it some more time to see if it clears up.

You are going ot have to proactively restart them... Easiest way to do them all at once is run this

All is good now, thanks. This will get me through for a bit till I can get a new VM built with more disk space up front.

I am glad your issue has been resolved! Is it ok if we lock this topic?

Works for me. I'll open another one for the disk extending not working right.

Sounds good. Closing it.
