log_fs_usage / /var/log directory on pool master filling up constantly
-
Dear XCP-ng community,
I have an issue with my XCP-ng pool master.
My /var/log directory is filling up every 2-3 weeks.
I cleared the content of the directory twice already but I would prefer to fix the underlying issue.
Due to the directory filling up I get "log_fs_usage" alarm in Xen Orchestra.
It is a pool consisting of 5 xcp-ng hosts and 2 NFS SR.
All nodes are fully up to date (regarding package versions) and are running XCP-ng 8.3.
I thought about increasing the size of the "/dev/md127p5" partition which is mounted at "/var/log" but I read that XCP-ng should be considered an "appliance" and therefore fiddling with dom0 should be avoided most at the times.I checked out some log files and it appears like XCP-ng is really chatty. It appears that most relevant services are using some sort of "debug" log level.
I was also thinking about wether or not this might be related to "SR.scan" tasks. When I remove the default filter in the tasks menu in XO I can see "SR.scan" being performed / repeated almost all the time.
"SR.scan" is popping up every like 10 seconds.
Is this expected normal behaviour?
Below is the current content of my /var/log directory.

Thanks a lot in advance.

@MajorP93 Amount of logging is directly proportional to the number of hosts, VMs, SRs and clients (Xen Orchestra, XCP-ng Center...). If you have a lot of those, it's rather normal to have huge logs.
Now, 5 hosts and 2 SRs does not seem to be much so I wouldn't expect you to have problems with huge logs. There could be something going on there. Try restarting your hosts to clear any stuck processes and internal tasks that could potentially spam the logs.
We started having problems with /var/log size when we got in a range of 15+ hosts, 10+ SRs and 1000+ VMs per pool. Unfortunately, log partition cannot be expanded as it is at the end of the disk, followed only by the swap. The workaround we did is to patch the installer to create a large 8GB log partition instead of standard 4GB. Of course, we had to reinstall all of our hosts.
