Hi,

I ordered a kvm from edis with 1gig disk, so problem is 60MB get filled in some days so mysql crashes and im fucked. Just running Lighttpd + PHP and Mysql on it.

Any idea how to fix this?

    Updates? Logs? Cache?

  • to be honest 1gb disk is going to struggle for most things using standard templates.

    I'd look to purge logs, cache and then start to be quite aggressive about moving packages you don't need, lang's, unneeded libs, etc...

    I used to love edis, still do. But their disk sizes really made me look away.
    They could start by offering 3gb/usd ratio on their plans.

  • Clear up the logs and caches whenever possible, i got 1 KVM with them (2 GB HDD) and still got like 1.3 GB or so left on it.

    You should get around 200MB back with:

    Remove cached .deb files

    cd /var/cache/apt/archives
    du -ch
    rm –f *.deb
    

    Remove log files

    cd /var/log/

    Remove list of packages:

    rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
    (apt-get update will recreate it back)

    Delete already installed (non needed) downloaded .deb packages

    apt-get clean

    edit:
    I forgot to ask you what distro you run :P

    I can give you a quote on those I have some 10+ various models, including 5.25" ones.

  • If you are using it just for dns, you can definitely remove a lot of packages you don't need. A minimal Debian installation usually requires ~ 500MB

    With Minstall it is possible to get around only 260 Mb used in Debian 6 :)

  • I can't believe there are still companies that still sell VPSes with less than 10 GB of space; I couldn't imagine anything that could run on that kind of space

  • The lowest i see now is 2gb storage with 32mb memory.

    It depends how low end you are going...

  • @Infinity580 : I think you should move your VPS to some other provider, 2GB space is surely going to be a problem in long run.

    It's working now, but i need to clean up the apt-get cache after every update when i vergot this... my Database would crash. You need to pay edis 128MB server's yearly so atm no.
