EBS volume 100% HELP

[Former Member]

/dev/hda1  mounted on / USE is 100%

Can take a snapshot of this volume, create a larger volume from this snap shot and attach the new volume?

I am not sure where all of this data is from?  But I have gone through some of the files and deleted old logs and such..

Your expertise is required!

Thank you for you diligence!

Hello Zachary,

Can you do a df -h and paste results.

Also, did you take any backup ?

thanks,

Hello Zachary,

We have two problems to address here.

1. Backup Data being Full

          - Recommendation is to go into UI and delete previous backups. That should clear up space.

          - Also if any files were copied here outside of UI they need to be cleant up as well.

2. Linux Admin / AWS issue -

         - Basic Linux Administration will need to be done for cleaning up the root volume.

That is what I did originally.. But after you suggested it again.. I went through my files and was able to clear up old logs and and such.. I would still like to know if I can create a larger root volume I only have a couple MB of room before 100% a little more wiggle room would be ideal.. I have begun to automate the processes I have undertaken to make sure these directories do not make it to 100%

Thank you for you help

Hello Zachary,

This is really a core AWS - Linux admin task and really as such an expert should comment.

thanks,
