Rad VPS server disk usage
Jul 23^rd, 2009 at 11:22pm

Hello,

I show that you are, in fact, using 8.5GB of disk space.

[root@host ~]# df -h
Filesystem          Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/vzfs             30G 8.5G 22G 29% /
none                7.9G 4.0K 7.9G 1% /dev

The disk space usage is as follows:

[root@host ~]# du -sh /*
0 /aquota.group
0 /aquota.user
6.0M /bin
4.0K /boot
4.0K /dev

This disk use looks perfectly normal to me. Nothing to lose any sleep over. Let us know if you have any other questions.

They are using Ruby and the gems collection for something. Rad wrote on Jul 23^rd, 2009 at 11:22pm: /dev/vzfs30G8.5G 22G29% / Plenty of free space still. Did something prompt you to ask them about your disk space?

	Re: Rad VPS server disk usage Reply #2 - Jul 24^th, 2009 at 5:04pm when i back-up the entire site using cPanel's utility, i saw the resulting image was < 1 gig. yet their 'grove' proprietary monitoring interface said i was using close to 9 gigs. so i was curious about the difference. they give me 30 gigs with my account.

Your site is mostly text. All your guides and the front pages are html, which is text. Your forum is also stored in flat text files. They probably use gzip compression on their backups. Gzip can achieve more than 8 to 1 compression of text. Binary doesn't compress as well.
