bug (hubble): 100% disk usage during installation

[Suspend85]

Hi!
my hardware: 8 CPU, 16 GB RAM, 320 GB Disk
When I install using command curl -sSL https://download.thehubble.xyz/bootstrap.sh | bash, the disk fills up to 100%, stops, and never starts the node.
At first it worked on a 240 GB disk, but now it can't even install on 320.

How i can fix this? Thank you.

I used a 200 GB disk a month ago, and it was fine, but now I have the same problem. I'm curious how much memory I should have to install the node.

Sounds like while the hub is downloading an initial snapshot, it might use extra disk space to during decompression of said snapshot.

For now, I would suggest increasing disk space to 500GB+. The network is growing rapidly and you likely won't be able to work with a 320GB disk for long anyway. We'll update our documentation to make this clearer.

Alternatively, strongly suggest not operating your own hub, and working with a provider like Neynar.

Good afternoon. Thanks for the reply. I'm currently using a 400Gb disk, 75% utilized.
And I'm using infura service for node. Is this normal?
And can you tell me where in the documentation I can see these changes?

What are you using to calculate disk usage? When I run df -h on our hubs, I see a total of ~215GB used. What else are you running on the system?

can you tell me where in the documentation I can see these changes?

I can't speak to why your machine is using much more disk space. There are endless reasons depending on how you've configured it. I would strongly suggest using a provider like Neynar instead of running your own hub.

Got it, thanks.
