It allows me to remove that big file, then I'm able to run sudo since I don't allow root ssh and sudo won't work with a full disk, then I can clear up space on the system, bring it up again, then update log rotate or do whatever to prevent that case from happening again.
- luckylion 6y agoThat sounds a lot more complicated (and time consuming) than just having monitoring in place, realizing the disk is filling up and fixing it before it leads to downtime.
