gustavoandriuolo
Hi everyone, this is my first post... sorry for my english, i hope you can understad me. I have a VPS, Cpanel and WHM 11.86.0.21 and CentOs 7.8 A few days ago I noted my disk was full and also noted that cpanel folder is 54GB. Almost all that space used is from user_notifications (22GB) and Taskqueue (28GB) Can i delete this folders? Why so many disk used, is normal? Thanks!

    /home/virtfs/kesrlcom/var/cpanel kesrlcom is an account. All are mine, I just want the files in home folder, the whole site is about 50mb...

    I think he's referring to the following paths: /var/cpanel/user_notifications/ /var/cpanel/taskqueue/
    Before deleting anything, I would check what is taking up all that space. Ours only takes up a few megabytes.

    Yes, sorry. Virtfs is another big folder. This is /var/cpanel/taskqueue/groups folder. [root@vps groups]# du -sh * 28G NotificationTasks 4.0K dns_reload_subqueue 4.0K fileprotect 4.0K flush_dovecot_auth_cache 4.0K ftpupdate 4.0K rndc_subqueue 4.0K update_userdata_cache
    In notificationtasks i have many files, all hidden. All like this: drwx------ 2 root root 36864 May 28 19:34 . drwx------ 9 root root 4096 Jul 31 2019 .. -rw------- 1 root root 94461112 May 18 16:08 .processing.1016..content.2020-05-18T19:08:27Z_afaa9_chkservd::Notify -rw------- 1 root root 100010274 May 17 10:11 .processing.10169..content.2020-05-17T13:11:27Z_b09ef_chkservd::Notify -rw------- 1 root root 97171704 May 18 02:06 .processing.10576..content.2020-05-18T05:06:41Z_6867e_chkservd::Notify -rw------- 1 root root 95593362 May 18 10:23 .processing.10827..content.2020-05-18T13:23:47Z_75463_chkservd::Notify -rw------- 1 root root 99988424 May 17 10:14 .processing.10929..content.2020-05-17T13:14:58Z_172f4_chkservd::Notify -rw------- 1 root root 98874977 May 17 15:54 .processing.1100..content.2020-05-17T18:54:10Z_be762_chkservd::Notify -rw------- 1 root root 97139641 May 18 02:15 .processing.11020..content.2020-05-18T05:15:56Z_02f7b_chkservd::Notify
    And user_notification folder contains all users. Only root have a significant size: /var/cpanel/user_notifications/root/history it seems to cantain spam EML files... Thanks!

    It seems really odd to me that these would be consuming so much disk space in that span of time and I think it warrants further investigation. Can you please open a ticket using the link in my signature? Once open please reply with the Ticket ID here so that we can update this thread with the resolution once the ticket is resolved. Thanks!
