Hi there,

I've inadvertently filled up /var with 100GB of Opsview databases. It
turns out leaving "purge small/large tables" at zero for more than a
year is a bad thing!

The ibdata1 file is 70GB big, and I know I can't shrink that without a
dump/restore, so I'll ignore that for now (the dump compressed down to
11GB, so I imagine it'll uncompress to a full disk again) and I can't
delete any data because it says the filesystem is full.

My thought is to drop the odw database (currently 35GB) and re-create it with

/usr/local/nagios/bin/db_odw db_install

Without any other amendments, is this likely to work? I'd set the
upgrade.lock as per usual, to prevent imports.

Any input welcome and appreciated - Opsview is currently working, but
I don't want to leave it in the current situation!
