Dear managers I am finding that the /usr directory slowly fills up: yoda.vir.gla.ac.uk> df Filesystem 512-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on root_domain#root 524288 455190 41024 92% / /proc 0 0 0 100% /proc usr_domain#usr 4194304 4010042 63808 99% /usr /dev/disk/dsk0h 28401404 10038892 15522370 40% /DBdisk /dev/disk/dsk1c 8123912 4832428 2479092 67% /yd1 /dev/disk/dsk3c 69558812 37875490 24727440 61% /yd2 The usr_domain was 97% full a couple of weeks ago and has gradually crept towards 99%. Whenever it gets to the level that the system issues a warning, I delete a few unnecessary things (eg. currently unused programs and libraries), but it always seems to creep back upwards usually within 2-3 weeks or so. According to HP support, I can't resize this domain as I don't have the appropriate licenses. In any case, making /usr larger would just avoid the issue rather than tackle its cause. Nothing has been installed recently: yoda.vir.gla.ac.uk> ls -lt /usr total 368 drwxr-xr-x 14 root users 8192 Jan 31 11:57 local/ drwxr-xr-x 24 root system 8192 Dec 5 12:17 opt/ drwxr-xr-x 6 root webgroup 8192 Aug 11 2005 www/ lrwxr-xr-x 1 root system 11 Dec 13 2004 news@ -> ../var/news/ lrwxrwxrwx 1 root system 30 Dec 13 2004 newconfig@ -> ../../usr/opt/OSP540/newconfig/ lrwxr-xr-x 1 root system 15 Dec 13 2004 preserve@ -> ../var/preserve/ drwxr-xr-x 4 root system 16384 Dec 6 2004 sbin/ drwxr-xr-x 6 root system 16384 Dec 6 2004 bin/ drwxr-xr-x 6 root system 8192 Dec 6 2004 lbin/ drwxr-xr-x 22 root system 8192 Nov 18 2004 include/ and so on.... # du -ks /usr/* | sort -k 1n 0 /usr/adm 0 /usr/dict 0 /usr/man 0 /usr/newconfig 0 /usr/news 0 /usr/pd 0 /usr/preserve 0 /usr/spool 0 /usr/tmp 0 /usr/ucb 38 /usr/users 42 /usr/skel 43 /usr/OV 56 /usr/quota.group 88 /usr/quota.user 555 /usr/cluster 757 /usr/TT_DB 990 /usr/printing 1225 /usr/internet 1265 /usr/tcb 1647 /usr/net 3336 /usr/field 6019 /usr/examples 6220 /usr/lbin 6690 /usr/www 9791 /usr/include 24999 /usr/ssh 35324 /usr/sys 35882 /usr/shlib 51142 /usr/sbin 63263 /usr/dt 76112 /usr/bin 100554 /usr/share 132639 /usr/ccs 229653 /usr/lib 301461 /usr/opt 403975 /usr/var 509109 /usr/local Any ideas on how to identify what's filling the disks and how to switch it off? All answers, as always, gratefully appreciated. Derek
