Operating Systems Solaris Solaris 10 /proc making filesystem full Post 302156385 by run_time_error on Tuesday 8th of January 2008 04:02:21 AM
Old 01-08-2008
Upon closer inspection of /proc it contains directories in the name of running PIDs. In my case Apache which has about 35 processes running (shown in ps -ef). These directories are large (some of them are about 700MB or less).

I wonder if these instances of Apache are making my / filesystem full.

Any clues?

Thanks,
