• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service.

  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Issue Domain Disk Usage

nate

Basic Pleskian
Hi,

I've got a domain that has suddenly rocketed up to 12463.4 MB reported by Plesk (was less than 500mb yesterday), du -sh of the folders virtual host directory reports around 500mb, any idea why is Plesk reporting such a high disk usage?

Thanks
 
Well we only use the Dropbox backup extension, and that's also around 500mb. I can see there is a failed backup, but as far as I can tell that would live in /tmp which is empty
 
Does the statistis overview page give more hints if the large volume is actually located in files? Could it be a result of large mailbox content or database content?
 
We don't have any email accounts on this server, and the only database connected to the domain is 3.5mb - I think it has something to do with the Dropbox extension, I'll remove the domain and re-add / reinstall the site and see if that fixes it.

Thanks for help
