Just Installed a new 1tb SSD, only 2 days in and:

SYSTEM: LOG FILES: GENERAL>

2023-06-03T18:19:19   Notice   syslog-ng   Suspending write operation because of an I/O error; fd='31', time_reopen='60'   
2023-06-03T18:19:19   Error   syslog-ng   I/O error occurred while writing; fd='31', error='No space left on device (28)'   
2023-06-03T18:19:19   Notice   syslog-ng   Error suspend timeout has elapsed, attempting to write again; fd='31'   
2023-06-03T18:19:14   Notice   syslog-ng   Suspending write operation because of an I/O error; fd='24', time_reopen='60'   
2023-06-03T18:19:14   Error   syslog-ng   I/O error occurred while writing; fd='24', error='No space left on device (28)'

Is this writing to RAM only. I wish there was a plugin or better menu options as per where on the drive to store log files.

Thanks for your response.

I guess I have to rebuild yet another router with a humungous Hard drive. I dont have skills required to implement your suggestion.

It would be nice if there was a "Disk Management" Plugin for us "GUI" folks so I could just add a USB thumb drive and designate it for logging

My Hard Drive ran out of space, so I think everything stopped logging. Here is DF-m output:

Filesystem               1M-blocks   Used Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/gpt/rootfs             110079 100558   715    99%    /

/usr/local/lib/python3.9    110079 100558   715    99%    /var/unbound/usr/local/lib/python3.9

Is there any way to tell everything to log for one or two months and delte everything older?

Thanks

USB NICs are frequently flakey and not really recommended. Just saying.

Thank You for the quick response, My TP-Link VLAn aware switch is probably more flakey, it's a temporary measure until I obtain a multi interface unit.

Hello,

I am running 21.7.8-amd64 using VLANs on a single NIC Lenovo ThinkCentre M73. So I utilized VLANS and a VLAN aware switch. I want to delete the VLANS, add USB NICs and make the native NIC the WAN port.

Is there a "simple" way or best practice to save all the settings (LAN DHCP, FW rules, Static mapping etc...) before deleting the interfaces, then apply them to newly created ones?

I tried something similar a few years ago and had to re-create everything.

Thanks a Bunch!
