/var getting fill frequently

I have Red hat Linux server. There are 14 NFS shares which are coming from NAS. There are so many messages filling /var/log/messages, which seems like some NFS logging is enables somewhere, but I am not able to figure it out. Every few minutes, it will filll my /var (which is part of root) to 100%

Code:

Can somebody suggest me, where to look and stop these logging messages ?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I got the fix. Somebody has put nfs pid in /proc/sys/sunrpc/nfs_debug and that was reading that pid continuosly and throwing messages. Thanks

Are you using autofs to mount the shares?
