hp-ux 11.31 server creates an archive file on path / var / tmp by user sfmdb and var is full.
Hi
My hp-ux 11.31 server creates an archive file on path / var / tmp by user sfmdb. What causes path / var is full? As an example, below.
Please help me, I will explain to the customer I understand.

Is there some actual command which "creates" this "an archive file"?
(What, exactly, does ""an archive file" mean to you?) Why?

/var has a finite size, and you've used all of it? Delete old files?
Make /var larger?

These are massive (582 MB) temporary files created by the System Fault Manager. They appear to be created every 2 days. These might be related to the database within SFM. One possible solution is to run through these steps:
# cimprovider –dm SFMProviderModule # cimserver –s # /sbin/init.d/sfmdb stop # cd /var/opt/sfmdb/ # rm -r pgsql # /sbin/init.d/sfmdb start # cimserver # cimprovider –em SFMProviderModule
Then delete all the large files in /var/tmp owned by sfmdb and ending with 02030.
I would recommend updating SFM. You may need other patches to go with the SFM set:
