[eran-michael]

Hi,

I have a server with few issues, the disk space usage reached 100% this morning, I tried to log in and to go to wp-toolkit to delete 1 staging environment to free space I received the notice: Error: Initial data load error: some required fields are not provided
I started deleting manually images from the staging environment just to free some disk space, didnt help still disk at 100%
I have submitted a ticket for help and when was prompt to prepare server for support and I clicked it the my sql server went down and exim server is down as well, tried to restart mysql server and it failed, websites are currently down as they cant establish connection to database, Need any help as I already paid for expedite support but had no response for several hours.

Check your logs directory for any/all large log files that may be able to be deleted to free up some space:

/var/log/

This article explains how to examine the disk usage for the entire server and find what is taking up space:

You start from / and use the "du" command, then find the largest area, "cd" into that area and run it again until you find what you're looking for.
