Servers
Updates, services and disk
Package updates, automatic security updates, system services, disk usage and safe cleanup.
Updates
Security updates install automatically every day. When one needs a reboot (a new kernel, for example), the server reboots in the maintenance window at 04:30 server time; until then the overview shows A reboot is required to finish updates.
On Updates you can also update on demand:
- Check for updates lists pending packages with their installed and new versions and marks security updates.
- Install security updates or Install all updates.
On the Servers list, select several servers to check updates or install security updates on all of them at once.
Services
Services lists the system services Zefily manages (web server, PHP-FPM, databases, Valkey, CrowdSec…) with their state and whether they start at boot. Start, Stop, Restart, Enable and Disable act on them. Services the system cannot run without are Protected.
Disk
Disk usage finds what fills the disk: Analyze shows folder sizes one level at a time; click a folder to go deeper and Up one level to come back. Very large trees hit a time or file limit; the sizes shown are then lower bounds.
Clean up runs safe, fixed actions that only remove data the system no longer needs:
| Action | What it removes |
|---|---|
| Package cache | Downloaded .deb files (apt-get clean); packages download again when needed. |
| System journal | Shrinks the systemd journal to 200 MiB, oldest entries first. |
| Rotated logs | Old rotated logs in /var/log (syslog.1, *.gz); current logs stay. |
Estimate shows what each action frees before you Clean up now.
The health score warns when a disk is 80% full and an alert opens at 90%.
