<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Not sure how to do that off the top of my head, but you can do some cleanup on files that tend to hog space.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">/xymon/log/rrd-status tends to be huge and you can delete it (make sure you have a backup first) without affecting your trend data and it will create a new log file automagically.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">/xymon/log/hobbitd is also typically a big log file that can be deleted.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">You can also find who the biggest histlogs hogs are by entering this command in your /xymon/data/histlogs directory:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">sudo du –s * | sort –n<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">It will probably take a while to do the search/sort, but then you can see which servers are the biggest hogs.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">This is a bit dangerous but you can also delete directory contents with a modified version of this script (I used this to kill the msgs in folders that had huge amounts of msgs files):<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">find . -iname msgs -type d -execdir ls {} \;<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">find . -iname msgs -type d -execdir pwd {} \;<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">find . -iname msgs -type d -execdir rm -rf {} \;<o:p></o:p></span></p>
