Hello,
I thought I would ask your advice. I only have a 2 GB /var slice and
space is shrinking fast. I see that most space is taken by /var/db.
$ du -hs /var/db
1.4G /var/db
$ du -hs /var
1.7G /var
$ df
/dev/ad0s1e 2178510 1738396 265834 87% /var
Is it possible to release some space from /var/db? I seem to recall that
/var/db is pretty important and I better not lose it...
It may be that something else is eating up available space but I am not
sure how to measure it. Every day about 1% more of available space is taken.
Many thanks for ideas what to do (apart from bying a bigger drive :)
And season greetings to you all!
