If you ever needed a tool to get to know which files are growing faster than other ones, you probably will be quite satisfied with this simple bash-script.

Simply put it to your crontab:
|
1 |
* * * * * root /root/bin/diskhogs.sh /directory/to/monitor |
Resulting reports will be put to /var/spool/diskhogs/report_*. You also can generate any reports by yourself, just use sqlite:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 |
sqlite3 /var/spool/diskhogs/db " SELECT MAX(size) - MIN(size) as mm, name FROM sizes WHERE time >= '$(date --date='10 days ago' +%s)' AND name like '/var/lib/libvirt/images/%' GROUP BY name ORDER BY mm DESC ;" |
This query will generate the report for all files in the /var/lib/libvirt/images directory for the last 10 days.
If there are any updates, you could get them from GitHub: https://gist.github.com/melnik13/7ad33c57aa33742b9854.
Happy monitoring! š
