Fauziah,

Usually files in /var/tmp can be removed. Not an issue

you can use find /var -size +2000 > out
Check the listing.

Likely your /var/perf/data-files/log* very big.. You can trimmed them.

Any patches installation lately ?

Re: .ssd file in /var/tmp file

Hi,

No idear what the /var/tmp/.ssd is. Could you post the output of

# du -kx /var | sort -rn | head -20

You could also check for superseding patches with the preview option in the cleanup command.

# cleanup -p -c2

Re: .ssd file in /var/tmp file

Hello,

Are you, by any chance, running LDAP
(directory services). Service Search Descriptor
(SSD) file might be the culprit.

Other guess is: Veritas Volume Manager and SSD
driver...

We need more details :)
