My data.fs was 500 MB, so I packed it then backed it up, resulting in 100 MB.
My hosting account is only 500 MB, so I am wondering if it is safe to delete data.fs.old (500 MB)?

You don’t need to keep it and you can let the pack process remove it for you. To remove it automatically specify the
pack-keep-oldoption in the zeoserver section:The pack process will still create a new file during packing, so you do need to have enough free disk space to hold both your Data.fs and a copy of it.
Via the
pack-daysoption you can specify how many days of history you want to preserve. If you trust your system backup, you can set this to a low value, which will save some more disk space.
