Cagefs file huge
Hi guys, We had a warning from cpanel last night that our /usr/ partition was nearly full on one of our servers. After doing some digging it came apparent that the skeleton directory is using 16gb of space! Is this normal? I believe I can move this to the home directory and create a symlink? Is that normal for it to be so large?

According to the documentation it should only be 7gb, but might have changed.
See this:
http://docs.cloudlinux.com/index.html?cagefs.html
That last command will create skeleton directory that might be around 7GB in size. If you don't have enough disk space in /usr/share, use following commands to have cagefs-skeleton being placed in a different location:
$ mkdir /home/cagefs-skeleton
$ ln -s /home/cagefs-skeleton /usr/share/cagefs-skeleton
On cPanel servers, if you will be placing skeleton into /home directory, you must configure the following option in:
cPanel WHM WHM -> Server Configuration -> Basic cPanel/WHM Setup -> Basic Config -> Additional home directories
Change the value to blank (not default "home")
Without changing this option, cPanel will create new accounts in incorrect places.Regards
Jacob

Its normal. The installation doc itself provide method to overcome this ( symlink to /home ), if you don't have enough space in /home.
