File system /dev/sda3 has reached warn status - can't upgrade cPanel
For the last week, I've been getting the following email message from my server:
[quote]The file system /dev/sda3, which is mounted at /usr, has reached warn status because it is 84% full.
Notification Type: diskwarn
Filesystem: /dev/sda3
Mount Point: /usr
Percentage Full: 84%
Disk Information:
Used: 6.20GB
Available: 1.15GB
Total: 7.75GB
ChkServd Version: 15.2
As a result, I can't upgrade cPanel or MySQL until I decrease the size of that file system. If I drill into it, I find: [quote]root@server1 [/usr]# du -h --max-depth=1 35M ./include 57M ./libexec 658M ./lib 8.0K ./games 3.1G ./local 16K ./X11R6 894M ./share 1.7M ./kerberos 265M ./bin 16K ./lost+found 128K ./man 76K ./doc 12K ./etc 336M ./src 47M ./sbin 5.3G . Drilling down farther: root@server1 [/usr/local/cpanel]# du -h --max-depth=1 1.9M ./build-tools 76K ./tmp 728K ./libexec 12M ./lib 360M ./base 4.0K ./.cpanel 180K ./img-sys 192K ./shared 453M ./whostmgr 36K ./htdocs 16K ./sqloptimizer 16K ./docs 248K ./obj 2.1M ./lang 22M ./cgi-sys 4.5M ./Whostmgr 144K ./sys_cpanel 2.4M ./locale 36K ./var 16M ./perl 172M ./logs 84K ./hooks 604K ./share 4.0K ./mail 26M ./cpaddons 284K ./install 44K ./cpupdatepatches 48K ./entropychat 9.6M ./java-sys 301M ./bin 30M ./Cpanel 48K ./php 369M ./3rdparty 32K ./.spamassassin 2.2M ./etc 4.0K ./modules-install 20K ./redhat 12K ./ea2-tools 16K ./t-dist 523M ./src 7.6M ./scripts 2.4G .
I've already deleted all log files, but that only dropped it down about 2%. My questions is - what can't I delete out of /dev/sda3/ ??

Hello :) Typically, it's better to use the recommended partition scheme of: Recommended Partition At least 16 GB is recommended for the /usr partition if you are using an advanced partition scheme. There is not really much you can delete as most of the files in /usr are required. You could check /usr/local/apache/logs to see how much space is used there, but for the most part it's likely a partition change is required which often involves an OS reinstall. Thank you. 0
