Re: Filesystem /var diskspace utilization exceeds 98 threshold.
Wht you might look at the moment is:
/var/adm/syslog
--Check for syslog and other logs which can trim down. Dont delete them, copy->null them
/var/adm
--Check for btmps/wtmps
/var/adm/cron
--Check for log/OLDlog
Or might just run du -sk .|sort -k1nr|more to see whats hogging up the space.
If you have OnlineJFS, you can try extending it....

Re: Filesystem /var diskspace utilization exceeds 98 threshold.
You can copy the syslog file onto tmp so even if you trim or nullify the file you will still have a reference for errors and warnings. You can also trim or nullify the file /var/adm/sulog in addition to the log files that contain successful and unsuccessful login attemps as that is also a file that grows if there are excessive su's. Don't forget to assign points.
Regards

Re: Filesystem /var diskspace utilization exceeds 98 threshold.
If you want bytes instead of useless blocks, you need +100000c.
Also the -rt is useless if you use \;. You should be doing:
-exec ls -ldrt {} +

Re: Filesystem /var diskspace utilization exceeds 98 threshold.
Why not run:
cleanup -c 2
That's pretty conservative and what it will do is commit/cleanup all old patches that have been superseded at least 2 times.
Then check where /var is afterwards and you could also try the suggestions from the folks above.
..you might also want to assign points accordingly to those who have helped you...
Rgrds,

> Shibin: You must have at least proper backup of /var/adm/sw before you execute cleanup command.
This is not a requirement but only a consideration.
If, in fact, you have uncommitted patch rollback information, you could do:
# cleanup -c 1
...to regain the most space.
