Default zimbramon Disk warning

Oct 20 06:40:00 zmail zimbramon[25507]: 25507:err: Disk warning: zmail.millennium-mgt.com: / on device /dev/sda5 at 87%

I am getting the above message 20 times in a row several times a day. It is an old error that has since been corrected. But after searching similar posts on the forums i can not find a way to fix it. Most users solved this by upgrading. but i am on the latest version (7.1.3 with CPU spike patch) and even after runing the install again the messages wont stop

What can i do to stop this?

Thanks

You can configure Disk Monitoring settings. The default warning level is 85% on each partition. This Wiki article may be helpful: Setting Thresholds for Disk Monitoring - Zimbra :: Wiki

Thanks for the reply.

The problem is my disk space issue was resolved already. I had set the backup to create a tar in /tmp instead of /backup/tmp simply deleting the tar file got me back on track

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda5 8.0G 5.3G 2.4G 69% /
proc 0 0 0 - /proc
sysfs 0 0 0 - /sys
devpts 0 0 0 - /dev/pts
/dev/sda2 95G 60G 30G 67% /opt
/dev/sda1 99M 34M 61M 36% /boot
/dev/sdb1 99G 14G 80G 15% /backup
tmpfs 1.5G 0 1.5G 0% /dev/shm
none 0 0 0 - /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc
sunrpc 0 0 0 - /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs

sda5 is only using 69%

but i still get the email messages from the day the actual error occured. (Oct 20th) its almost a month later

Default [solved]

THe reason i get these messages is because my log were not rotating since the day that the drive got full. I found the problem in /etc/logrotate.d/zimbra inside the file the statement for creating the new log file was wrong ( i think this is caused by partial or bad re-install) it said


create 0644 USER GROUP

it should say

create 0644 zimbra zimbra

once i fixed this i manually ran the log rotate using

logrotate -v /etc/logrotate.conf

the logs all shrank from 4+GB back to normal and i stopped getting the message from 4 months ago that my drive was full.

How do i mark this as solved?
