Re: / not showing recent disk availability

Hmmm... On one of my servers there are 23 unicode* files at 131KB (131,000 bytes) each.

Regardless, if Samba is not in use you *should* be able to safely delete these.

Re: / not showing recent disk availability

Thanks a ton Pat! Removed it and it dropped me down another 4%. I'll keep looking for things like that. At least now my developer won't keep bugging me on the 90% thing. Thanks again.

Re: / not showing recent disk availability

/sbin is normal
/etc/opt/OV looks a bit large. What OpenView product are you using?

swlist -l product | grep -i -e ov -e openview

Otherwise, it looks pretty good. Check for unusually large files or directories in /:

ll / | sort -rnk5

Note: If you had a directory with hundreds or thousands of files in it, then removed all those files but left the original directory, it may be extremely large but with no files in it. Delete and recreate the directory. There is no way to reclaim the unused slots in the directory -- they are marked as availlable but still occupy space.
