Interpreting Server Status "Seq event storage is approaching the minimum free storage space"

[mloskot]

Hi,

I run Seq in AKS cluster deployed with 16 GB of storage, from the Helm chart values:

persistence:
  enabled: true
  size: 16Gi  # Default minimum is 8, see https://github.com/datalust/helm.datalust.co/blob/21016831b9934b028a61ea3128f154e939b8c549/charts/seq/values.yaml#L174
  storageClass: managed-csi

and Seq has started issuing this warning:

The Minimum free storage space setting is kept at the default 4.3 GB:

and the Data > Storage confirms there is 7 GB of available storage:

Could anyone help me understand why I'm receiving that warning?

A warning is issued at something like double the minimum free storage space to give the administrator time to do something before Seq stops storing new events.

It makes sense. Thanks!
