[Solved] zmstat.out growing to 20+ gb in size

sangamc · Post by **sangamc** » Fri Aug 10, 2012 3:16 pm

The only contents of the zmstat.out file is:
Use of uninitialized value in subtraction (-) at /opt/zimbra/libexec/zmstat-nginx line 118.
I have a multiserver setup and this is my MTA / Proxy server. I have already searched the forums and google for this specific error and most of the threads suggest upgrading to the latest version since this was a bug from zimbra 6. The problem is I am already using the latest version of zimbra. Does anyone have any pointers as to what may be causing this. Other than my /opt folder filling up completely, the server works perfectly
[zimbra@mta32 ~]$ zmcontrol -v

Release 7.2.0_GA_2669.RHEL6_64_20120410002025 CentOS6_64 FOSS edition.

Good Stuff!!
I am not to enthusiastic about modifying the perl script (not my strength) But i may manually create a new log rotation so that i zeros out when the file size goes above a specified value.
Thanks for your help

Turns out this file is already included in the logrotate.d/zimbra config. Ill have to do some more trouble shooting to determine why it does not rotate and grows so big!!
Thanks again

I was never able to find out why just the zmstat log would not rotate. Ended up using a cronjob to cat /dev/null > /opt/zimbra/zmstat/zmstat.log. all other logs rotate fine, jst this one
