boostpooler is very big

Post by sonne83 »

Good day!

Boostpooler file is very large, can I delete it? According to which algorithm this should be done without loss of system operability?

For those wondering, I'm still here, but lost in the shadows. Yearning for less bugs. Who want's a Cacti 1.3/2.0? Streams anyone?

Well, you can shrink it this way, you will loose some graph history. You should review how it got so large though

Code: Select all

CREATE TABLE pob LIKE poller_output_boost;
DROP TABLE poller_output_boost;
RENAME table pob TO poller_output_boost;
That series of commands will create an identical but empty table, drop the large table (could take a while), and then rename the empty table to the original name.
