Increased mount point size

[Fuad_1]

I have noticed that the /opt/app/oracle size is reaches 99% used. I want to know what are the files that are added or modified during the last days that causes this increase.

[T G Manikandan]

#du -k /opt |sort -nr|more

find out the directories which are using more space.
and check out the files.

I would check for the .trc files.
I am not sure whether you have enabled the sql_trace in your oracle.

check your $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/init.ora file for the parameter
user_dump_dest=

Check for the .trc files in the destination directory and clean them up.

Hi try using the newer option with the find command.
Example say you take a file name and want all files newer that that then just type

find ./ -newer
in the /opt/app/oracle directory.

One more suggestion you can use is -size option with find option to find the files of a particular size.

Cheers

please I want to know which files are updated recently..

[Rajeev Shukla]

Fist is define how recent you need. Take that file and make it a refrence And the use the option
find /opt/app/oracle -newer

That will give you all files updated after this defined time.

Hi,

How can files be identied that were created yesterday so they can be purged?
The "-mtime" option could be used, but it considers a day to be a multiple
of 24 hours. Therefore, it won't locate files created before midnight but less
than 24 hours ago. To accomplish this follow the following procedure.

RESOLUTION

1. Create a file to compare against. In this example we are looking for files
last modified on 12/21 or earlier.

touch -t 12220000 /tmp/compare

2. Create a script in /tmp called older.sh for the find command to execute.
Make sure it has execute permissions. It will be used to identify files older
than the compare file created in step 1. Older.sh can be modified to move or
purge the files as desired.

#!/usr/bin/ksh
COMPARE=/tmp/compare
if [ $1 -ot $COMPARE ]
then
echo File $1 is older than file $COMPARE
fi

3. Run the find command to identify the files.

find / -type f -exec /tmp/older.sh {} \;

Hope it helps,

Robert-Jan.
