<div dir="ltr">Morning all,<div><br></div><div>We are currently running Xymon 4.3.28-1.el7.terabithia (on CentOS 7.x) and I have been struggling with this since we switched to the RPMs from an older version of xymon built from source about a year ago. We've gone from a few GB on the old server to now almost 40GB just for this directory. </div><div><br></div><div>I posed the question a little while back to the group and thought I had found the cause in the rrddefinitions.cfg file under the line:</div><div><br></div><div>RRA:HWPREDICT:8064:0.1:0.0035:2016<br></div><div><br></div><div>I tried a few different things but ended up deciding to comment out this line to see if it would slow the growth, but it does not appear to be working. Is there any reason these files would be increasing in number or size? Is there something I can do with rrdtool to clean up data? Is it normal that an rrd directory for a single host is upwards of 60M on the newer versions of Xymon? </div><div><br></div><div>Here is an example of the files in a folder for a host:</div><div><br></div><div><blockquote style="margin:0 0 0 40px;border:none;padding:0px"><div>[root@xymon]# du -h --max-depth=1 /var/lib/xymon/rrd/server.example/*<br>216K
