Other Usage Disk full (Unable to remove)

[Peterv3210]

Hi,

Currently the disk of our VPS is full and we're not able to delete the data.
When looking at the disk usage we see that there is ±136Gb used:

Other Usage‡    135,846.68 MB
136,196.84 MB total disk space used.

But we cannot find any file that is that big


when running this command df -h we see this:
/dev/mapper/vg_cpanel-lv_root 148G 148G 397M 100% /

So apparently there is something that big but we cannot locate it.

At the moment its almost impossible to use the server

How do i find and remove the files responsible?

It's probably not in an account. In shell go into /var and /usr and run

du -h --max=1|grep G

To find large folders and drill down when you find one curiously large.

You may wanna try this:

find / -user CpanelUser

It will search for files related to the Cpanel user.

Hope it helps.
