ptpb.pw is out of disk space #240

Closed buhman closed 5 years ago

buhman commented 5 years ago

I freed about 500MB by deleting all pastes over 60MB, just to keep the service going, but this obviously isn't going to last very long.

We should redeploy ptpb.pw within the next day probably.

ptpb.pw was migrated

I don't see this documented elsewhere, but I found at the time that this unexpected increase in utilization was caused by pb being used as a bulk photo backup service.

Out of curiosity: during normal operation, how much space was the data taking and how many upload/download requests was ptpb.pw experiencing?

I do not have record of this.

From memory, ptpb.pw had accumulated ~60GB in paste content from ~2014 to ~Nov, 2018. Over roughly 2 weeks, this inflated to fill the available ~150GB, which caused an outage.

Paste records are datetime-stamped, and I'm open to making a public-paste-only database dump available if someone is interested in analysis.
