Hello,
I inherited a freebsd installation with a var slice/mount that is to
small and filling up all the time.
What type of info should I provide to allow someone to help me with a
solution?
I would very much prefer to not install another drive just for /var.
/usr has plenty of space. Can I mount var off of /usr?
You could do that.
/dev/ad0s1e 257998 206956 30404 87% /var
More to the point, you might want to find out what is
filling your /var as that is quite a lot of space being used
if you are not running a mailserver.
du -d1 -h /var (as root) should give you some clues.
The usual suspects are /var/tmp and /var/log, though
on occasion I have had logfile rotation not do its thing
correctly and leave a program writing to a nonexistant
file, filling up /var.
