Hello,

I am getting a notice - DISK CRITICAL - free space: / 516 MB (3.10% inode=84%) for my Nagios server. Are there temp logs I can easily remove to free up space?

Thanks.

You can delete old logs in the "/var/log" directory and sub-directories. You can also delete whatever you don't need in the /tmp/" directory. Maybe you have some old backups that you can delete in "/store/backups/nagiosxi".

You can find the 10 largest files in /var/log by running:

Code: Select all

du -a /var/log | sort -n -r | head -n 10
After you clear some room, add more disk space to your Nagios XI server. Please, review our Nagios XI - Resizing the VM Disk SIze" document here:

Important: Almost always, when you run out of disk space, you would end up with corrupted tables in the database, so you will need to run our database repair script, too.
