Hi,

Did you check your date may be this error not today's if your file system is going full then you can find the error at /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log

Hi Thiru,

Check for the coredump files and if exist delete it.

# find / -xdev -size +10000000c -exec ls -l {} \;
This displays the big sized files.

Thanks,
Analyst.

yep. syslog is the way to go, so you can check the date and time when the log is full, as you can see dmesg doesn't tell you when it happend

Hi Thiru,

Yes , only thru' syslog we can find out the exact error , with the time stamp.

In my earlier input I send to check the core files and remove it.

kindly check for both.

Thanks,
Analyst

msgcnt 235 vxfs: mesg 001: vx_nospace - /dev/vg01/lvol1 file system full (1 block extent)

/dev/vg01/lvol1 20480000 17658520 2780792 86% /u00

This tells that /u00 mount point was full at some point in the past (not now). syslog.log will give the exact time stamp.
