Running pfSense 1.2 embedded on an Alix box. While doing some configuration changes today, we ran into a situation where we somehow lost part of our configuration (some of our VPN definitions and all of our Virtual IPs).
Upon perusing the logs, we found that /cf had filled up. Logged in, and sure enough, it had filled up. pfsense:/cf/conf# df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/ufs/pfSense 111M 58M 44M 57% / devfs 1.0K 1.0K 0B 100% /dev /dev/md0 38M 1.8M 34M 5% /tmp /dev/md1 19M 5.2M 12M 29% /var /dev/ufs/pfSenseCfg 1.8M 1.7M -7.0K 100% /cf devfs 1.0K 1.0K 0B 100% /var/dhcpd/dev Looking in /cf, the largest culprit was a rrd.tgz file which was about 1MB, but the rest of the files only took up a bit over 300k (there are 5 backups of the config and each config is about 50KB each), so it looks like there are possibly some deleted files sitting around that a process is still hanging on to taking up the other 300-400KB? pfsense:/cf/conf# ls -l total 1101 drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Dec 11 15:04 backup -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 52276 Dec 11 15:45 config.xml -rw-r----- 1 root wheel 0 Nov 6 2004 ez-ipupdate.cache -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 1062656 May 5 2008 rrd.tgz Since the rrd.tgz hadn't been updated in ages, we've deleted that file for now. We're not even sure what it's used for. Any ideas? Is this something that's handled better in 1.2.1RC?
