Zimbra store drive is full?? -Second-

Filed under: accoutre,Catatan Oprekan — effendisusanto @ 10:20 am

On this second part, I want to write out how to reserve emergency free space on zimbra machine as I mentioned on the First Part.

To accomplish this task, we have to find out which files need to be deleted so we can get ’emergency free space’ instantly. The most possible files to be deleted are log files. Zimbra is a stack consist of several technology so it must have several file log for each technology. We can find all zimbra related log files on two directory:

  • /var/log/
  • /opt/zimbra/log

Lets sweep out the first one:

% cd /var/log
% ls -alh | less
% rm -rf maillog.*#rm -rf messages*
% rm -rf zimbra.log*
% ls -alh | less

Then we sweep out the second:

% cd /opt/zimbra/log
% ls -alh | less
% rm -rf audit.log.*#rm -rf zmconfigd.log*
% rm -rf zmlogswatch.out*
% rm -rf mailbox.log*
% ls -alh | less


Huff.. finally I got 2G freespace to keep the engine running. We now have privilege to find the real solution like I posted on the third part.
