Runbook

Airbyte pods using too much disk space and failing to create new connections in Kubernetes cluster.

Back to Runbooks

Overview

This incident type involves Airbyte, a software tool running in a Kubernetes cluster, failing to create new connections as a result of Airbyte pods using too much disk space. This can cause disruptions to the functioning of the software and affect its ability to perform its intended tasks. A runbook needs to be written to clean unnecessary files on Airbyte pods and free up disk space to resolve this issue.

Parameters

Debug

Check the status of the Airbyte pods

Describe the Airbyte pods to get more detailed information about their current state

Check the disk usage of the Airbyte pod in the Kubernetes cluster

List the largest files in the Airbyte pod to identify files that are consuming the most disk space

Check the logs of the Airbyte pod to identify any errors or anomalies that could be causing the issue

Check the Kubernetes resource usage to identify any resource constraints that could be causing the issue

Repair

Identify and delete any unnecessary files or data that are consuming disk space in the Airbyte pods, for example /storage/airbyte-dev-logs

Identify and delete any unnecessary old files that are consuming disk space in the Airbyte pod, for example /storage/airbyte-dev-logs
