What is filling up your / filesystem? If it's rapidly filling up then I would expect a directory with RW data is in the / filesystem. Such as /home.
The easiest would be to add a minidisk and move the directory that fills up into that new disk. Next mount that disk on that mountpoint. Usually you will already have directories such as /usr and /home on separate (mini)disks.

Extremely new to Linux and Z systems. I need to expand the / filesystem on a server running SLES 11.3 (under z/VM 6.3) The server was built by my predecessor to the specifications outlined in the Virtualization Cookbook for SLES 11.(/dev/dasda1 with 384 MB). / is rapidly approaching 100% Since / is not on LVM, how can I expand the / filesystem? I am thankful for any help or nudges in the right direction.
