TRY THIS how can I free up space?

[paulnye]

My PBX HDD has 5% free space. What folders might be safe to empty? maybe there's some log files that accumulate that I could clean out. Any help would be much appreciated.

PIAF 3.0.6.5 FreePBX 2.11.0.43 Asterisk 11.8.1 CentOS 6.5 64bit

Hi

Accumulated log files in /var/log/, particularly the old ones which are zipped (.gz extension) or those ending in a number, e.g. .1 .2 etc.

Also check the size of the logs in /var/log/asterisk/, some may want truncating.

Create a findlarge script and make it executable. This will find all files larger than 10MB. You can adjust it as desired.

#!/bin/bash
# if nothing is passed to the script, show usage and exit
[[ -n "$1" ]] || { echo "Usage: findlarge [PATHNAME]"; exit 0 ; }
# simple using find, $1 is the first variable passed to the script
find $1 -type f -size +10000k -exec ls -lh {} \; | awk '{ print $9 ": " $5 }'
