I bought a MyBookLive for the family media collection. I like that they are using open source software on the device. I am able to ssh over there and reboot for example when that is needed.
I got a message that a file was not able to be written. So I ran this command: MyBookLive:~# df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/md1 1.9G 1.9G 0 100% / tmpfs 50M 0 50M 0% /lib/init/rw udev 10M 6.7M 3.4M 67% /dev tmpfs 50M 0 50M 0% /dev/shm tmpfs 50M 2.7M 48M 6% /tmp ramlog-tmpfs 1.9G 1.9G 0 100% /var/log /dev/sda4 924G 531G 393G 58% /DataVolume 100%, not a good sign. Where are the problems? MyBookLive:/# du -sh var 1.5G var Let's look in there: MyBookLive:/# du -sh var/* 4.0K var/backups 1.3M var/cache 15M var/lib 52K var/local 0 var/lock 946M var/log 4.0K var/log.hdd 4.0K var/mail 4.0K var/opt 0 var/run 12K var/spool 0 var/tmp 0 var/twonkymedia 542M var/www MyBookLive:/# du -sh --si var/* 4.1k var/backups 1.4M var/cache 15M var/lib 54k var/local 0 var/lock 992M var/log 4.1k var/log.hdd 4.1k var/mail 4.1k var/opt 0 var/run 13k var/spool 0 var/tmp 0 var/twonkymedia 568M var/www I am not seeing it (the --si follows symbolic links).

Is there a general command to limit cache or logs? I guess I am not much of a sys admin.
