Hello, I am currently trialing cPanel on a VPS, does my current disk usage look correct? It seems quite high, but I'm new cPanel so I'm not too sure. Total disk space usage at the moment is 12.91 GB. Here is what is installed: cPanel 54 CloudLinux 7.2 with CageFS & PHP Selector LiteSpeed CSF/LFD Installatron 2x Test accounts worth approx 130MB 2GB Swap

  Hello, I think you have created swap partition from your server disk space and due to that it's using 2.1GB disk space. Also your /usr directory is using 8.5GB disk space so check why this directory is using such space.
  cd /usr du -sch * mount cat /etc/fstab

  Yeah I understand about the swap taking 2GB away. I just wasn't sure how much space my sort of setup should take up. /usr
  194M bin 4.0K etc 4.0K games 35M include 762M lib 566M lib64 56M libexec 3.8G local (the cpanel directory within local is taking up the majority of this space) 44M sbin 4.0K selector 4.0K selector.etc 3.2G share 35M src 0 tmp 527M tmpDSK 9.1G total

# /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 none /dev/pts devpts mode=0620 0 0 /dev/vda1 / ext3 errors=remount-ro,usrjquota=quota.user,jqfmt=vfsv0 0 1 /swap swap swap 0 0 /usr/tmpDSK /tmp ext3 defaults,noauto 0 0 172.22.63.27:/var/nfs-mounts/ws1-cpanel /backup nfs defaults 0 0

  Hello :) The disk space usage looks normal. The space from cPanel in the /usr partition matches up to the standard post-installation disk space utilization. Thank you.
