Title: disk full (flowd.log up to 40 GB) [solved]
Post by: bdario on June 14, 2025, 06:44:02 PM

Hello,
Opnsense 25.1.5_4-amd64

I got a warning about the disk space.
"Disk space on the root filesystem is critically full 42,00G or 91% used, 3,90G available).

This is the disk partitioning:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity Mounted on
/dev/gpt/rootfs 50G 42G 3.9G 91% /
devfs 1.0K 0B 1.0K 0% /dev
devfs 1.0K 0B 1.0K 0% /var/dhcpd/dev
devfs 1.0K 0B 1.0K 0% /var/unbound/dev
/usr/local/lib/python3.11 50G 42G 3.9G 91% /var/unbound/usr/local/lib/python3.11
/lib 50G 42G 3.9G 91% /var/unbound/lib

Can someone please assure me that I can simply delete the /var/log/flowd.log file? (it currently takes up about 40 GB)

Thank you.
Dario

Disable netflow, probably? Yes, you can delete that without adverse effects - apart from netflow reporting, of course.
