Hello Liss, I think it's unlikely that your DSpace database has grown to consume your entire disk. It's more likely that the old bitstreams are filling up your disk. This is because if you delete an item with a bitstream in DSpace, it's not really removed from the assetstore. To actually delete all deleted bitstreams from the asset store, run this command (replace [dspace] with your dspace installation directory): [dspace]/bin/dspace cleanup -v This fact is documented in API docs, but this should probablybe stressed more often in User Guide. http://projects.dspace.org/8/apidocs/org/dspace/storage/bitstore/package-summary.html If I'm wrong and you really need to shrink the SQL database, not the assetstore, let me know on the list.
