Royzee Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Is your storage drive getting close to full? cPanel >> Server Status >> Click to View Should show a drive starting with /dev/ What percentage does it show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmacleo Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 not also getting this in msg are you? /usr/tmpDSK (/tmp) if so and running php handler fcgid look for lot of php process not ending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zizzla_JA Posted September 7, 2012 Author Share Posted September 7, 2012 This is the email i am getting.. cpanel@xxxxxx.kimsufi.com Drive Warning: /dev/sda1 (/) is 87% full Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmacleo Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 ok, thats just typical drive full warning and not the cpanel tmpdsk issue. just like it says, you have a drive thats running out of space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royzee Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 To get rid of it you will need to upgrade to an account with larger storage, or remove some un-needed files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dmacleo Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 why are you talking about /tmp when the msg specifically says its the drive sda1 filling? cpanel gives a specific error (one I posted above) when the /tmp is running low on space. this usually symlinks to var/tmp where all your sessions (those are the # files) are stored so when thats filling it tosses the error I asked about earlier. usually this /tmp is held around 4gb or so anyways from the securetmp scripts which clean it by crons, I would look towards old logs first (as mentioned above) then unneeded stuff in the home directories. this stuff in /home is where larger files will be. how much disc space does your plan/host allow? are you running apc cache or anything?
