  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

File size aquota.group aquota.user

Hello,

I found out that there are quite a few huge files on my system.

I get this list of files over 100mb in size:
Code:
[root@ns1 ~]# find / -size +100M

I can not do anything with those files because the permissions don´t allow for that, I can not even change permissions.

I notice those files are written to on very page view.

Questions:
- Are this normal file sizes?
- What are they used for?
- Should I do anything?

Thanks, greetings.
 
It is quota files for your Virtuozzo containers. Do not touch them.
 
Thanks for your reply Igor.

What bothers me is that those files are so big, doesn´t such file size reduce server speed?
I am the only user on this sever, can I not run my container without the processes that use those files?
 
Do not worry about these files and server performance. If you need more details - read carefully Virtuozzo documentation about container's quota.
