Excessive disk usage
#5
RE: Excessive disk usage
Check your log folder...
/var/logs/ and /var/sentora/logs/

If it is the logs filling up that quick, something is causing an excessive amount of logging. (But, In general the logs can get very big)

If by chance it is a log, and one is eating up 5gb in just a few days, then there is a serious problem on your server.

One of your websites could be compromised and somebody is uploading files to your server or a site has a LOT of errors being reported, especially if it is a high traffic site.

I'm not sure how you connect to your server, I use WinSCP which is like Filemanager. I can navigate through the folders and see the size of files and permissions and things like that. (And I do use it through SSH also, not just FTP).

If those logs are 'small', then check each domain's log folder. /var/sentora/logs/domains/

The answer is in the log files. It is not Sentora.

Regarding your mention of:

Quote:reiserfs                      /dev/simfs              (rw, usrquota, grpquota) - about 24gb , what is it?

A quick Google search tells us that it is related to disk space:

Quote:It means that your disk space on your VPS is getting full. /dev/simfs = your / = your VPS disk space. It could be an overall node issue, but it's more likely to be an issue specific to your VPS.
I run my own server (Ubuntu 14,04) and have a 500gb HDD on it, With 12 sites, a Sentora zppy repo, a file mirror site and other development sites and a Battlefield 2 game server, I am still only using 12% of space and my server has been online for over 2 years in this current configuration. (I had a Sentora on Windows previously.)
