clean excess binary logs from mysql - free up space

Update: 30 July 2023

I actually prefer this command, i just have to figure out why im getting so many binlog files!

MYSQL

PURGE BINARY LOGS BEFORE '2023-07-30 00:00:00';
PURGE BINARY LOGS BEFORE NOW(); 

go into /var/lib/mysql/

check the latest bin log file name

e.g: binlog.000319

load mysql command

run the following to purge all bin log files before the last one. 

MYSQL

PURGE BINARY LOGS TO 'binlog.000319';

Check the disk space

df -h

This should now free up a lot more space!
