I noticed 'atop' generates log files in /var/log/ which is on a 2GB partition. atop has a logrotate rule of 15 days / uncompressed. On deployment-bastion.eqiad.wmflabs that is 334MB currently, or a sixth of /var/ available disk space. I guess we want to compress the old archives.
Example on deployment-bastion: $ du --total -h /var/log/atop* 4.0K /var/log/atop 2.7M /var/log/atop.log 41M /var/log/atop.log.1 32M /var/log/atop.log.10 40M /var/log/atop.log.11 41M /var/log/atop.log.12 41M /var/log/atop.log.13 35M /var/log/atop.log.2 69M /var/log/atop.log.3 28M /var/log/atop.log.4 18M /var/log/atop.log.5 19M /var/log/atop.log.6 37M /var/log/atop.log.7 41M /var/log/atop.log.8 64M /var/log/atop.log.9 501M total $df -h /var Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/vda2 1.9G 1.5G 324M 83% /var
