Awesome response Andy!
😀
you could create another partition for /var/logs (or
some other
path and then symlink back into /var/logs), and put "aggressive"
size-based log rotation to prevent them spinning out of control.
Oh yeah, the other thing I should have mentioned is that the free
monitoring service:
https://tools.bitfolk.com/wiki/Monitoring
can easily be made to alert on low disk space conditions, thought
hat particular check does require an agent (snmpd or nrpe) to be
installed and configured on your VM.
So that's a way to get alerts about disk space ahead of time, rather
than find out only when it's all gone and your things start
breaking.
Cheers,
Andy
