Hi Viren,

There's a script shipped with galaxy that you can use './scripts/set_user_disk_usage.py' to force recalculation of a user's disk usage.

Hello. I have a Galaxy user whose disk usage remains at 91% even after
deleting and purging all histories and datasets (The initial disk usage
was 99%). I have searched the mailing list (e.g.
http://dev.list.galaxyproject.org/disk-space-usage-td4660164.html) and
wiki posts and followed all the steps, including purging hidden data. I
have the cleanup scripts running once a day via cron:

01 01 * * * cd ~/galaxy-dist && python
scripts/cleanup_datasets/cleanup_datasets.py universe_wsgi.ini -r -d 60 -1
11 01 * * * cd ~/galaxy-dist && python
scripts/cleanup_datasets/cleanup_datasets.py universe_wsgi.ini -r -d 60 -2
21 01 * * * cd ~/galaxy-dist && python
scripts/cleanup_datasets/cleanup_datasets.py universe_wsgi.ini -r -d 60 -4
31 01 * * * cd ~/galaxy-dist && python
scripts/cleanup_datasets/cleanup_datasets.py universe_wsgi.ini -r -d 60 -5
41 01 * * * cd ~/galaxy-dist && python
scripts/cleanup_datasets/cleanup_datasets.py universe_wsgi.ini -r -d 60 -3
51 01 * * * cd ~/galaxy-dist && python
scripts/cleanup_datasets/cleanup_datasets.py universe_wsgi.ini -r -d 60 -6
01 02 * * * find ~/tmp -mtime +60 -delete


I have manually run the above commands with -d 1 to delete anything older
than 1 day and I have restarted the Galaxy service. However the user¹s
disk usage remains at 91%. I am at a loss of what to try next. Any
suggestions or ideas of what the issue could be, or what I need to do
additionally? I am running the April 2014 distribution of Galaxy. Thanks.
Viren
