ips-4255 space issue

dondongamo — Sun, 10 Mar 2019 09:49:00 GMT

All

none 525312 500500 24812 96% /usr/cids/idsRoot/var/eventStore

none 525312 40 525272 97% /usr/cids/idsRoot/var/iplogs

Given above is the size of iplogs & IdsEventStore I deleted the logs that starts with 00* and it shows 1% space utilization what about the IdsEventStore can I safely delete this file ? is this a system generated file ?

Pls advise. TIA

Do NOT delete that file. The eventstore is where all the events are kept in a circular buffer. Deleting that file may mean you'll have to reimage your sensor.

You may get better results from deleting files below which are safe to remove:

# rm -rf /usr/cids/idsRoot/var/updates/files/S69

# rm -rf /usr/cids/idsRoot/var/updates/files/common

# rm /usr/cids/idsRoot/var/virtualSensor/*

# rm /usr/cids/idsRoot/var/.tmp/*

- If not enough space is freed up...

- Also, needed to remove files from:

/usr/cids/idsRoot/var/updates/sigupdate/*

/usr/cids/idsRoot/var/updates/backups/*

/usr/cids/idsRoot/var/updates/*.rpm.pkg

/usr/cids/idsRoot/var/core/mainApp

/usr/cids/idsRoot/var/core/logApp

/usr/cids/idsRoot/var/core/nac

/usr/cids/idsRoot/var/core/authentication

/usr/cids/idsRoot/var/core/ctlTransSource

/usr/cids/idsRoot/var/core/sensorApp

/usr/cids/idsRoot/var/core/-cidcli

/usr/cids/idsRoot/var/core/terminal

/usr/cids/idsRoot/var/core/sendCtlTrans
