Re: How do I find out the cause for the hang?

Hi Thanks to all.

The issue was with auditd daemon getting suspended when /var filesystem
space threshold is reached.

We have done the following:


1. Deleted all the old files in /var/log/audit.d folder.

2. Killed the auditd daemon.

3. Edited it configuration file to delete old files automatically when the
threshold is reached.

4. Started the auditd daemon.
Thanks & Regards,
