Any large files in the / directory?

ll|sort -k5,5nr|pg

will sort them by size (largest first).

Hi,

Check if there are any core files and there could also be some large files residing in /dev.

HTH,

Peter

Hi,
apparently you store data from an application, app/yantra7x, in the root volume.
You need to clean up in the data produced by this application to free some space. In order to avoid similar problems in future, you should create a separate logical volume for that application.

regards,
John K.

As John said it ssems your application yantra7x is producing some data and storing in the root.Try cleaning the data produced by this application.If the data is necessary add another disk and reconfigure it.You can even move data in to some other disk and make symbolic links to these datafiles.

regards
SK

All of your system directories look fine size wise.

The problem would seem to be the /app directory.

You can move that to another filesystem that has more space and put in a symbolic link.

For instance if you moved /app to /data1, you could do:

ln -s /data1/app /app
