understand why your user_json files (any of them) are
more than a few tens of MB. My reference site GB7DJK

You can remove any user_json file and you don't need
to restart. They are just backups of users.v3j. The
user_json files are there to allow you to restore the
users.v3j file. <br>
<br>
So how big is your users.v3j file?<br>

Right, I stand corrected. It’s the user_json.o file
that’s 13Gb.

<p>Keith,</p>
<p>Look to see what you have defined in
debug: <b>sh/debug</b>, you also have
many traces and you can reduce them with
<b>unset/debug</b>.<br>
Or you can limit the number of log files
if your FS is small.</p>

<pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">I spoke too soon.
Woke up this morning to a crashed node, the Pi was still running but when I tried to connect externally to the node, I had no response, when I logged on and issued a /spider/perl/console.pl command, I just had a grey screen. I’ve checked the debug log and it fell over at 02:29:47 this morning. The last entry in the debug log is just a normal spot.
I successfully rebooted and it’s all running but I have PRTG monitoring and I just got pinged for low disk space.
When I check, my /local_data/user_json file has grown to 13Gb.
Any idea what’s caused this? Can I just stop the node, delete the file and restart? I suspect with less than 50Mb disk space, it’s going to crash soon anyway.</pre>
