Kaspersky CyberTrace Web shows you a notification when the hard drive that Kaspersky CyberTrace is installed on is 90 percent full. The text of the notification is specified in the KL_ALERT_FreeSpaceEnds event. You can change this behavior by modifying the following settings in elasticsearch.yml:

  • cluster.routing.allocation.disk.watermark.high—Specifies the amount of the used hard drive space (in percents) that triggers the notification. The default value is 90 percent.
  • cluster.routing.allocation.disk.watermark.flood_stage—Specifies the amount of the hard drive space (in percents) that can be used before the disk is considered to be full. %FreeSpace% in text of the KL_ALERT_FreeSpaceEnds event is calculated relative to this value. The default value is 95 percent.
