How to clear cache or make some space available for my instance? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] xnx@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

im running ubuntu on a vps. I can get a shell running. I don't see where in that thread it mentions how to clear the tables?

I set up Lemmy using the Ansible setup so it is in docker

I have backups automatically running every week.

My Lemmy instance has reached 100% storage so I can no longer use it. Is there a safe way I can clear cache or make some more space available without upgrading the disk space? I set up the instance with the ansible script many months ago and migrating to object storage seems to be a decent amount of work I don't have to commit to currently.

I tried searching on the admin wiki (https://wiki.lemmyadmin.site) but I couldn't find anything

I can't switch to Object Storage just yet because I'm worried that since I have 0 space left there will be issues when trying to migrate so I need to make some space available and then make the switch to Object Storage

I'm worried I can't migrate to object storage considering I have 0 disk space available though. I'd like to clear a bit of space before making the move

Could you explain a bit of what these are doing and why you decided on these rules?

Also, isn't bruteforcing an SSH key near to impossible?

Ah ok thanks for the info! Do you know if vultrs firewall would make installing fail2ban redundant?

ELI5? 😅

The install section of naxsi is a whole lotta stuff I've never touched before

Yeah its only possible to login with a key.

What limits would you set on the firewall?

From the bit I've read people usually say changing the ssh port is mostly "security theatre" is this not fully true?

Hi, I'm setting up a public wiki using mediawiki and I'd like some help ensuring the server and mediawiki is safely setup before I start sharing it publicly. I installed it on Vultr using the mediawiki app from the Vultr Marketplace. Are there any things I should ensure before publicly sharing the link?

Some things I've done so far:

  • I disabled password login to the server so its only possible to login via ssh

  • I made it so I have to approve of any edits to the wiki

  • I still haven't enabled uploads of files because I want to ensure I only allow jpeg\png uploads.

I'm relatively new to running servers so any tips are highly appreciated.
