Check Asset Usage

On the assets1.specifycloud.org instance, we host and manage most[1] assets for hosted Specify Cloud users.

To see the space used by all current asset directories, you can log into the VPS as your user and run the command:

Europe:

du -sh * /home/specify/s3_attachments/eu

Canada:

du -sh * /home/specify/s3_attachments/ca

North America:

du -sh * /home/specify/s3_attachments/na

This can be adjusted and used elsewhere when needed. You can use du -sh * to effectively summarize the space used by a set of directories.

Some regions (including Swiss instances via Exoscale, KU collections on KUBI managed VMs) manage assets independently. Brazil has its own asset server running in that region as well.
