Thanks for that. I've been using the tarballs from the website, not the 
package, but I do have different filesystems. /usr is separate, and got full 
all on its own. 

I deleted retention.dat while Icinga was stopped, and that slowed down the 
endless emails, but I am still getting inaccurate emails from the services. Do 
I need to stop Icinga and IDO2DB, then delete retention.dat and status.dat, and 
then remove all the entries in the MySQL database? Reinstall Icinga? I've 
gotten 400+ notification emails in the last 24 hours and it's gotten a bit 
ridiculous.

All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure 
contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, 
security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this 
data and makes sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
