/usr/local/cpanel size

[joaoherberto]

I have a dedicated server that is partitioned with 20G for root file system and a separate partition for /home . I am starting to run out of space;

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
rootfs 20G 17G 2.4G 88% /
devtmpfs 16G 224K 16G 1% /dev
tmpfs 16G 0 16G 0% /dev/shm
/dev/md2 20G 17G 2.4G 88% /
devtmpfs 16G 224K 16G 1% /dev
/dev/md3 1.8T 7.6G 1.7T 1% /home
/dev/md2 20G 17G 2.4G 88% /var/tmp
yyyyyyy..y.y.y.y.y.y.y.y.y:/export/ftpbackup/ns502449.ip-000-00-000.net/
500G 161G 340G 33% /mnt/nfs/backup

using the "du" command, I was able to narrow down the two biggest culprits, and they are;
/usr/local/cpanel = 6.9G
/var/ = 5.3G

My question is this, is /usr/local/cpanel normal to have that large of a size?

Hello

It's normal to see at least 3G in the /usr/local/cpanel directory. You can continue to run disk space commands within those directories to narrow down where most of the space is coming from:
