The Disk Usage interface shows which directories consume storage in the hosting account.
Before you begin
Log in to the secure Gigatech client area at https://portal.gigatech.nl, open the relevant hosting service, and use the cPanel login action. cPanel labels can differ slightly by theme, version, and hosting configuration.
Steps
- Open cPanel and select Disk Usage.
- Review the total usage and the directory list.
- Expand directories or open File Manager to investigate large paths.
- Check website files, backups, logs, cache directories, mail, and temporary files.
- Download anything that must be retained before removing it.
- Empty application trash or cache through the application itself when possible.
- Recheck usage after cleanup; the displayed total may take time to update.
Important notes
- Do not delete unknown system directories or application files simply because they are large.
- Mailbox data and local backups are frequent causes of unexpected disk usage.
