Where to see information about my managed Mysql DB size etc.

Hi @Giroin,

You can SSH to your droplet doing

ssh root@DropletIp

To check the current disk size available as a whole on your droplet, type in the following

df -h

You’ll receive an output looking like this

Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev            481M     0  481M   0% /dev
tmpfs            99M  592K   98M   1% /run
/dev/vda1        25G  1.6G   23G   7% /
tmpfs           493M     0  493M   0% /dev/shm
tmpfs           5.0M     0  5.0M   0% /run/lock
tmpfs           493M     0  493M   0% /sys/fs/cgroup
/dev/vda15      105M  3.6M  101M   4% /boot/efi
tmpfs            99M     0   99M   0% /run/user/0

The main disk partion is / - /dev/vda1. Now the above example is with a newly created droplet so you might have more Disk Used.

Now to check how much disk space your MySQL is actually using type in

du -sh /var/lib/mysql

This will check provide you with the MySQL’s folder size.

I am getting the same warning message on my managed database (MySQL) - / 2 GB RAM / 1vCPU / 25 GB Disk / Primary only / NYC3 - MySQL 8

I have sent several support requests by=ut they keep reverting back with same message as the warning, no help at all.

I just want to see the information on disk space used, but no luck at all! This is becoming pain with the managed database.

Hi KDSys,

I know this dashboard but there is only latency and throughput statistics there. Nothing about hard disk or other data.

Thanks, Giorgos
