Puppet reports have grown since we switched from 0.25 to 2.6.X by roughly 10x their original size.
so they are sucking the disk space out of puppet1 b/c we keep them there.
When I reduced the number we keep it didn't have as nice of an impact on our free space as I would like.
So - I wrote this to modify our reports clean up to compress all .yaml files except for the latest 24hours worth of them.
It keeps 1month present - but much, much, smaller
and it keeps the latest 24 hours worth immediately available.
here's the patch:
