Purge files on NFS or S3?


John Wong
 

Hi

I just looked at our disk usage on NFS server. We have used like 200G so
far, and I wonder if there's a systematic way to purge files we don't need
(or how do I know I don't need them)?

Similarly, if I were to replace NFS server with S3 instead, does the
existing process (if any) work with S3?

Thanks.

john, i think the resource files may grow forever right now without
intervention.

i'm pretty confident that when apps are deleted that their droplets are
deleted with them and that proper garbage collection occurs with that.

i'm unaware of any NFS file system to s3 blob migration. you would need to
update the CC_DB references too i'm pretty sure. i'm interested if you find
out more.

Not sure if this is what you need, but you can manually sync + delete files
from a local filesystem (including NFS mount) to/from S3:

... with `—delete-removed` option

Hi all

Thanks. No I was just curious if there was a way to identify what to remove
in the blobstore because I was surprised the size of my blobstore at this
point. I will check what's in there (maybe James is right it is mostly
resource files). I am currently using NFS. I can build a CF with S3 as my
blobstore.

An option could be to just delete all the resource files on the blobstore.
The effect would be that for binaries that would have been matched, they
would be uploaded again on the first new push including those binaries.

Make sure you only delete the resource files, not everything...

CF Runtime
 

Hi John,

James is correct, the resources do not get cleaned up. The system does not
have any runtime dependencies on any of them however. They are used when
pushing an app to prevent the user from having to push a large file that
the system has already seen.

You should be able to delete the contents of the resources blobstore. This
is the path defined by
properties.cc.resource_pool.resource_directory_key in your deployment
manifest.

Removing anything in the buildpacks, droplets, or packages folders can
cause problems in the running system.

- CF Runtime Team

john, i think the resource files may grow forever right now without
intervention.

i'm pretty confident that when apps are deleted that their droplets are
deleted with them and that proper garbage collection occurs with that.

i'm unaware of any NFS file system to s3 blob migration. you would need to
update the CC_DB references too i'm pretty sure. i'm interested if you
find
out more.
