Re: Low in Space message even with directory empty
Check for large files or a large number of files in /var/tmp. Also check files in /var/adm. Particularly, /var/adm/wtmp could be large and need to be truncated. Also suspect are /var/adm/syslog/syslog, OLDsyslog, and mail.log.
If you need to truncate a system log file, don't rm it. Backup the file (to a filesystem with space or to a tape) and zero out the file using ">filename" syntax. If you rm a file like syslog, you will still have a space issue because syslogd has the file open. Space won't be released until syslogd is restarted.

Re: Low in Space message even with directory empty
cleanup -F
or
cleanup -i
to cleanup old patch files.
also:
cd /var
du -sk *
This will show which directories are using the most space. Then simply navigate to the directory and keep issuing "du -sk *" at each directory to determine what ones are the hogs.
Then remove/truncate anything that you can.
Other areas that may be big:
/var/opt/omni
/var/opt/perf
/var/adm
/var/tmp
