Unused space used occupied by alerts_v*.db files is reclaimed every day at midnight localtime. This should shrink the file automatically. The reason for a huge size of the file can be: - Very large number of alerts - Old ntopng version which is not reclaiming space - ntopng not running at midnight localtime
By the way. It is safe to turn ntopng off and delete the file manually, if you can afford losing generated alerts.
