hi,
I am having disk size issue on / it just kept growing. it is 17Gb and currently we have only 1.6Gb available. This machine is serving as spamassasin and logs are in /logs/ . Please suggest.
Remove the unwanted files.
Go to the logs dir and check the size using 'df -h ' command.
See if there are any files that are too huge and remove them.
The issue could be that a few files are not getting logrotated properly [or maybe logrotate is not working properly on ur system]].Fix that and the disk space issue will not reappear.
