Ploop auto-compact script for OpenVZ nodes: compact.sh

Eduard Yamaltdinov

Section 1. Problem:

Ploop has a minor issue arising from dynamic resizing involving file deletion and no space on the hardware node.

Section 2. Solution

This is where the compact.sh script comes in handy.  I have written this script to resolve the issues by running in the cron every 15 minutes on a host node.

*/15 * * * *  /path/to/compact.sh

How the script works

  1. Checks the /vz partition for the available disk space.
  2. If the disk space is under the minimum allowed or a certain amount of time has passed (onxruns), the scripts run vzctl compact on every VPS on the node.
  3. Compact reclaims the space for the host node.
  4. If compact is unable to reclaim enough space, an email is sent notifying you of the disk usage.

Settings

/tmp can be changed to any directory by changing the CFG=”/tmp” line at the top of the script.

Set compact to automatically run every X times.  By default, compact will run every 96 times (~24 hours) even if there is enough free space. 0 will disable this feature.

echo 96 > /tmp/compact.onxruns

Set the minimum level of disk space (in MB).  If the available disk space falls below this, it will compact the containers.  This defaults to 5% of your /vz partition size.  To set 10GB:

echo 10000 > /tmp/compact.minfree

Set the email address used by the script (requires mailx to be installed to send an email)

echo me@email.com > /tmp/compact.email

Set the vz partition (if varies from /vz)

echo /vz2 > /tmp/compact.vzdir

Turn logging off/on (default: 1).  Will log to /tmp/compact.log

echo 0/1 > /tmp/compact.logging

 

Download the script

chmod +x compact.sh

 

Debugging

If you want to make sure all the settings are correct. Run with the debug option to dump the settings.
