Plesk server running out of space

Posted on by

Problem:

Plesk is running out of space

Solution:

  1. SSH into the server
  2. Run du -h to see what’s eating up space
  3. Or run du -sh * | sort -rh per folder to narrow down the file size 
(du -x / |sort -rnb |more)
  1. In this case, it was /var/log file
  2. I found a log file called modsec_audit.log-202010120.gz
  3. Deleted the file
  4. Do not delete modsec_audit.log
