Hello all,
My hard disk is filling up in the /base directory to where it has
consumed all 200gig of that drive.
All the posts that i see keep saying move to a bigger drive, but at
some point a bigger drive would just get consumed.
How can i keep the disk from filling up other than get like a half TB
setup just to hold the ./base/* folder
Two things come to mind:
- Vacuum as already mentioned by others.
- Temporary sort files from queries needing to sort massive amounts of
data.
But you need to help us out by supplying more info...
Cheers

TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives?

Try fsck-ing and do a df before and after and tell us if that makes a
difference.
