Managing Disk Space
Your control panel allows you to monitor and manage
your disk space usage. This document covers the following disk space management
issues:
Summary
Disk Usage
After you logged in to the control panel,
you will see a Disk Usage bar in Control / Info area on
the left below the traffic bar:

It shows how much FTP (web), mail and DB
disk space all together you are using of your Disk Usage limit.
It shows:
a) the Last Day Usage
- every 24 hours all servers (web, mail, MySQL, etc.) are scanned,
and all actually used disk space is summarized to make your Summary Disk Usage for the
last day;
b) the Avg (Average Usage) for the current disk usage cycle (one month
length regardless of your billing period) of your Disk Usage Limit
Disk Usage Limit doesn't
stop you from using more disk space. But if you go over it, you will be charged
overlimit fee for it. Keep in mind that your hosting account will be suspended if you
reach/exceed your Disk Usage Limit by over 120%. Before suspension, you would be
usually notified by email of approaching your disk limit.
