October 6, 20241 yr I'm seeing a lot of logs for spinning up and down drives, is there a way to disable this? I'm also dealing with high log usage in general with 43% log usage in 7 days. Any assistance is greatly appreciated diagnostics.zip
October 6, 20241 yr Community Expert Looks rather normal to me, there are like 2 or 3 log pages for a day, but the solution would be to disable spin down or limit spin ups.
October 6, 20241 yr Community Expert Have you looked to see what is writing a lot to /var/log? Does not appear to be the syslog.

October 6, 20241 yr Community Expert Solution I suspect that one of the directories contains most of the space.
