Understanding /dev/mapper/rl-root storage FortiSIEM

Hello guys, please guide me to understand this little thing.

 

This is a supervisor all in one deployment with Click house DB (FSM 7.1.X running on Rocky Linux)

 

As you can see, my /sda partition has 75G, (at first it was 25 GB)

The /dev/mapper/rl-root inside /dev/sda is eating quickly the storage that I assign to it. Why is this happening? is supposed that logs are forwarded to Click house DB in /dev/sde partition tand this should be the more used storage, also /opt is running out of storage.

This is the second time that I resize the /dev/mapper/rl-root partition. 

 

Thank you!

Hi @gwaihir 

You can use du -sh /* command to try find what is consuming your storage.

But, really I want to understand why this is happening, if /dev/mapper/rl-root is linked to /opt and eat storage quickly, seems that I'm missing something abot initial sizing.

 

UPDATE: (inside /opt/phoenix/cache), can this be safely removed?

Hi @gwaihir 

 

This does not look like normal behavior. My recommendation would be to raise a TAC case for this. The following link provides some useful information about the output required by TAC:

I hope it helps.

Hello @Richie_C thank you for your reply

 

I deleted all those files from ../cache/ and everything is going well.

Hi @gwaihir,

 

I have the same problem, I get a /archive fullness warning in super. I can add a disk but it might happen again, I have a new environment. How did you clear the cache?

Hi @adem_netsys I deleted all files inside /opt/phoenix/cache with the prefix _M*  and also found that some kernel crash were saved on /crash directory /var 

 

I think this problem was solved because there are no more space disk alerts.

 

Regards.
