Crash dump error

[Sakui]

Hi guys,

I have rp3440 server which restarted several times and now can no longer boot fully to unix. This is the error i get when booting.

Co.................................................................
..
msgcnt 8 vxfs: mesg 001: vx_nospace - /dev/vg00/lvol7 file system full (1 block
extent)
OK
Start NFS core subsystem ..................................................
..
The /dev/vg00/lvo17 is mounted on /var.How can i recover this server to boot into multi user mode.How do i delete the crash dump it created.
I have try boot from either the primary or alternative path i still get the same error.

On the console you can boot into single-user mode, then at the prompt do an init 1

That will allow you to log in directly as root and give you access to the full filesystem.

At that point you should be able to address the full filesystem and relieve it of it's misery....

Once you are finished, reboot the server and let it boot up normally into multiuser mode...

Hi

As already said, boot the system in single user mode and mount the /var fileysystem.

Following command will help you to find the largest unwanted files.

#du -kx /var | sort -rn -k1 | head -n 10
To list out 10 largest directories in the /var filesystem.

# find /var -type f -xdev -print | xargs -e ll | sort -rn -k5 | head -n 10

To list out 10 largest files in the root filesystem

Thanks & Regards
