my best advice would be to start with

# du -sk /opt/* | sort -rn

start looking through the directories for anything that can be removed/moved. Hopefully you have OnlineJFS. If so, once you get some free space you can lvextend the lvol and use fsadm to extend the file system.

Hi Yogesh

I would also do a

find /opt -name "*log*" -exec ll {} \;

as a lot of things tend to log in /opt instead of /var.

Hi.

A small change:

find /opt -name "*log*" -exec ls -l {} \;

The real issue is there might be apps using /opt as /var (e.g. CiscoWorks) and if so you'll need to change this to really address this.

Hi

You may try some of these

1. #find /opt -xdev -size +10000 -exec ls -l {} \;

2. #find /opt -name "*tar"

3. Check for the openview/omniback/OV related files.

Hi

Application installed in /opt mount point,
Some application create, log files, core, tar
Files, So that /opt automatically increasing.

1 Inform to application team, copy to
another mount point, which more file generated
2 create cron script for removing core , log files
3 Unwanted files Remove Manual

Eg: Remove more than 30 days log files

find /opt -mtime +30 -type f -name "*.log" -exec rm {} \+

Remove more than 30 days core files

find /opt -mtime +30 -type f -name core -exec ll {} \+

Before you remove any log file, be 100% sure that no process is going to want to use it in the future. If you are only 99% sure, null the file instead: > old.log (or whatever the log file is actually called).

Hi yogesh

I can suggest one UNIX script that will find all biggest files in your filesystem. It will work in hpux, Solaris and Linux.

ftp this script to /usr/sbin

Usage :-
biggest.sh /opt
