Question
Almost out of disk space randomly?
Preface: I only use my droplet for small web projects and a TeamSpeak server.
I just recently decided to check my droplet’s free space and noticed it’s only 2.2GB out of 20GB. I simply don’t see how this is possible. Do the automated backups take up space on my droplet?

You can run
duto get a report on disk usage. If you set the-max-depthto1and run from the root folder, then it will tell you what directory is using the most space.For example, on my system the
/varfolder is the largest. So you can then repeat the process to find an oversized folder.As for backups, I really hope they are not stored on the droplet. That kind of defeats the purpose of backups.
I guess -max-depth isn’t a possible argument on Ubuntu 14.04?
@Sinclair sorry, it should be
--max-depth=1with 2 dashes.May not be relevant, but I also found my Digital Ocean droplet disk space filling up. It turned out to be old versions of the linux kernels - I used sudo apt-get autoremove to free up space.
