Postgres file size
Added by Andrew Krangel over 1 year ago
Hi all
I use the Community Docker version as a personal task/work tracker on my local machine, with a couple of hundred work packages across a handful of projects, and mninimal attachments. For safety, the database is mounted into the container from a local folder that is synced with cloud storage.
Recently I received an "out of space" alert for the storage, so I went looking for big files. I noticed that there are two files in openproject's pgdata/pg_wal
folder that together add up to almost 350GB - is this expected?
The alert came the same day as I upgraded to 12.5.8, but I never checked the file sizes on earlier versions so not sure if coincidence. The manual backup I took on 12.5.7 before updating was only ~15MB though.
thanks!
