Directory size, functionality and troubleshooting.
Hello folks,
Today one customer has reported an instance where he is facing an issue with configuration utility, and it was The BIG-IP System has encountered a configuration problem that may prevents the configuration utility to function properly.
Based on the Qkview shared by customer, I found that Appliance is running out of disk space and under the incident there was a list of directories and its file size and currently occupied size for the same. The suggested article explained to remove unnecessary files from the appliance to prevent this behavior.
However I found a list of directories which doesn't seem familiar to play with. Following is the list of the same.
/dev/md7 248M 188M 48M 80% / /dev/md8 1.7G 1.3G 296M 82% /usr 69M 69M 0 100% /tmp/eud
There were other directories as well, but the consumption of those directories were seeing normal. I am not aware about /MD7 /MD8 etc..
I need your help you understand the meaning of that directories and its role with BIG-IP. Can you please help?
Thank you in advance, Darshan
