      On the dashboard I am seeing /var at a 109% and was seeing /tmp also at 109%

      Just got this feature after upgrading. Thoughts, solutions, etc. ?

        Are you using pfBlockerNG?

        I had an unrelated problem with pfBlockerNG as part of the update to 21.05. In my discussions with bbcann177, he brought up my drive and memory use. He said there was also an issue with unbound python mode (DNSBL Mode) eating drive space. I wasn't having that issue. He already has a fix for it but I don't know if that has been merged with currently available devel code.

              Is figured it out.

              I used "du" to drill down to the biggest consumers of diskspace and found that suricata was the offender. I reduced the log sizes and retention policy down and now have some free space.
