Hi,
Currently facing a disk utilization issue on FMC1500 at a client. Clearing old updates, patches, and log files, recovered about 10GB but the /var partition is full again causing FMC GUI to stop working.
Checking disk usage, the "sfsnort" directory is 200GB+. Total /var partition is 280GB.
Any ideas how to reduce the size of this directory?
Thanks,
mag

I always recommend a TAC case when modifying the directories within an FMC. It is very easy to make the system have an unrecoverable error if you do something wrong.

Resolved!
Opened a Cisco TAC case as suggested by @Marvin Rhoads
TAC engineer removed a bunch of files, name containing "packet_log", from the sfsnort directory.
Brought down disk utilization very significantly and all is well now.
Apparently these were very old files.
