vmstat is from 2 days to see when and what is going on.

I need to talk to my friend who moved files from sd to flash. Because he did it for me.

Regards

Jacek

/I didn't recognize vmstat, a quick search turns up the following.../

"vmstat 60 1440/ > /path/to/vmstat.`date +%d` This will write to a file every minute for 24 hours then create a new file and start over."

That might be a good candidate to move over to the flash, along with the logs as Andrew suggested. In fact,it's writing more than the logging daemon so you've just doubled the logging load there.

[jbd2/mmcblk0p2-] is the ext4 journal - I always find it interesting to see just how large that value gets over time. Make the SDcard read-only and that drops to zero.

Keep it running and see what else shows up, anything that pops up there is a possible candidate to move to the USBstick or hdd.

The webserver (the image / html files generated by weewx are included in weewx's iotop total) can also be moved over to the flash /USB stick, hdd, whatever. The rorpi HowTo moves the webserver into memory (except for NOAA files - It's been pointed out that if there are a lot of them, they are worth keeping on the drive rather than regenerating.) I haven't thought of a valid reason to keep the www files on disk, they are regenerated constantly. Although there will be an empty page after a weewx restart, but a placeholder could be kept to inform any one unlucky enough to be viewing in that small time window.


Cheers

        sqlite write total will be included under the python
        /usr/bin/weewx total - sqlite is a friendlier option for the
        SDCard

        /dev/ttyUSB0 should be dealt with in memory, no disk access
        involved

        logging will be visible under iotop as rsyslogd -n (or
        whatever daemon you use). Turns out, it's not as big a burden
        as it's made out to be; at least on the systems here.

        I wouldn't have thought ftp would add any burden - the files
        have been generated already and it's just reading them.

        As you say, it is a bit odd.
