SD-WAN

I'm trying to install a network of SSRs on NFX350 devices, but the storage constraint on those devices for VMs is problematic (19 GB).   Within a few days, the VM out grows the available storage that is built into the NFX350 hardware.  Has anyone implemented the SSR in a similar limited storage environment?  I would assume I need to have a daily cron job running on the SSR to limit (delete) logs and such or prune database/cache files to keep the VM from exceeding about 16 GB.  What should I be looking at cleaning daily/hourly?

For reference, a day after install, one device went from 12G available to 4.5G available and searching for larger than 10M files wasn't promising:

only 6 files are above 100M and a sampling of those directories doesn't yield a large number of files.

Anyone familiar enough with the inner workings of the SSR to point me in the right direction?
