I am getting a warning in FMC GUI about Disk Usage.. it is at 86%

From the FMC CLI ..its showing that partition /dev/sda5/ has a disk usage of 86%.. how can i resolve this issue ? 

Any help is appriciated.

What firmware is the FMC running on?  

Could be CSC vm88294.

[NeWGuy1109]

it is on 6.6.1

[balaji.bandi]

is this Virtual or Physical, what kind of RAM and comute it got.

as per i know 6.6.X  much improved with space and lot of them fne tuned to DB also.

Go to shell and check df -h see if this true ? if not then it is bug.

[NeWGuy1109]

This is a virtual FMC.. and i ran df -h command from CLI and got the output which i mentioned initially

it shows 86% usage for this particular directory /dev/sda5/ 

[NeWGuy1109]

i am still facing this issue..any help on this please

[balaji.bandi]

check what files in there, try to clear if unnecessary logs

[NeWGuy1109]

How do i view the files in /dev/sda5 ?

[balaji.bandi]

ls command (Linux commands)

[NeWGuy1109]

I tried that already on /sda5 but it says it is not a directory

[balaji.bandi]

/dev/sda is mounted with /var

ls /var  - /var stored logs

look out the files in ls /var/log/

thanks.. i can now see 2 files with a big size wtmp and wtmp.l ..can these be removed ? 

there are others with high size .. mod.jk.log, top.log.gz, tid_process.log

[balaji.bandi]

First you can offload that logs if possible and required

anything end with gz check can be deleted

any thing .log need to zero the file size.

[NeWGuy1109]

i deleted a few files ending with .gz .. however when i ran df -h in to the root ..still /dev/sda5 shows the same amount of space which was before deleting anything..do i need to reboot ?

[balaji.bandi]

No as soon it delete it effects and show you

ls -al will give file sizes  (i delete big takers - with cautious)
