Dell PowerStore Service Scripts Guide

Make space on the root partition (svc_cleanup)

This service script allows service personnel or customers to gain access to a node where the root partition is 100% full. This script enables access by removing a large file that is consuming space on the root partition.

The cleanup deletes old data collections, old journal logs, and old core dumps.

Verify that the root partition is full. If the root partition is not full, the system asks if you want to continue.

Remove old data collections from /cyc_var/cyc_service/data_collection. If a data collection is not found, you can find old journal logs in /var/log/journal and delete oldest one.

If a journal log is not found, you can find a core dump at /cyc_var/cyc_dumps/processed/ and delete it.
