/var is Full 98% used

[Eli Daniel]

Hi,
i have the problem, the FileSystem /var 98% used

these files are large size

/var/adm/sw/save/PHCO_39498/VEA-FILESET/opt/VRTSob/jre_ia.tar
/var/adm/sw/save_custom/PHCO_39498/jre_old.tar
/var//adm/sw/save/PHCO_39498/VEA-FILESET/opt/VRTSob/jre.tar

I can delet files?

[Dennis Handly]

If you delete these, you won't be able to rollback PHCO_39498. If you are happy with it or it has already been superseded, you can commit the patch or use "cleanup -c 1".

[Eli Daniel]

run the command cleanup -c 1 but not release space

[Dennis Handly]

>but not release space

Those particular files? Or just not as much as you wanted?
Has PHCO_39498 been superseded on your system? If not, "-c 1" won't remove them.

[Eli Daniel]

the filesystem has 100 MB free.
need free space

I can back up these files on another filesystem?

/var/adm/sw/save/PHCO_39498/VEA-FILESET/opt/VRTSob/jre_ia.tar
/var/adm/sw/save_custom/PHCO_39498/jre_old.tar
/var//adm/sw/save/PHCO_39498/VEA-FILESET/opt/VRTSob/jre.tar

not affect the system?

[Patrick Wallek]

What messages did you get when you ran it? Did it tell you that it would clean up space.

[Eli Daniel]

Hi Patrick

>I can back up these files on another filesystem?

Yes but are you going to remember to put them back if you need to swremove that patch? (Or leave a symlink in place.)

If you know you never need to remove specific patches, like PHSS_35055, you can just commit it.
