6.3. Confirming Data Storage Usage

To confirm data storage usage, enter the following command:

# less /var/log/pcp/pmlogger/$(hostname)/pmlogger.log

This lists all available metrics, grouped by the frequency at which they are logged. For each group it also lists the storage required to store the listed metrics, per day.

Example storage statistics

logged every 60 sec: 61752 bytes or 84.80 Mbytes/day
