I am hoping someone might have an ide as to what is filling my SME Server 7.5.1 Hard drive..
Earlier this evening my daughter complained about bad internet access..
I thought I'll reboot SME and see if that helps, Now the VM's never start, and the
/var/log/messages shows :

And then use something like:

Code: [Select]
du --max-detph 1
Above command will look one directory deep and sum all data in it, that way you can easily pinpoint what is eating up your harddrive.

Thanks for the tip, I found my asterisk messages log was 17GB due to a rogue device causing it to log a failure multiple times a second.
I deleted the message log, and sorted out the problem device, now all is looking good again.
Thank you cactus !
