Monitoring files and directories
The following files and directories should be monitored. Remove old data as needed.
Note For information about maintaining the file system in a GFS environment, see "Maintaining GFS
for VTS" on page 205.
Several directories store files that are generated on a regular basis. Files may accumulate in the
following directories:
/tmp — Used for temporary files, this directory contains a variety of items including files, fifos, and
directories
/var/log — Contains system log files
/usr/local/tape/log — Contains VTS log files
/usr/local/tape/trace — Contains trace logs generated by some programs
/var/spool/mail — Contains user mail folders.
/var/spool/mqueue — Contains outbound mail
/var/spool/clientmqueue — Contains outbound mail not yet processed by the host’s MTA.
It is recommended that you monitor these directories and archive (or purge) old files as needed. You
can use several commands to help manage the directories:
l To view the size of a directory, run the following command (as root):
du -sh /dir_path
l To see the oldest files in the directory and their sizes, run this command (as root):
ls -alth /dir_path
