I'd like to discourage you from killing processes that originate from /var (and /,/usr... and with older versions of HACMP even from /tmp) as long as you don't
know for sure that the server does not need them. Should you happen to kill a process that is vital for your server the results may be unpredictable.
It is all files in AIX (as in every UNIX) and therefore problems related to space in filesystems can be solved in a non disruptive way most of the time by either shrinking/blanking files (but not deleting!)during operation or extending filesystems online.

AIX Version 6.1 and 7.1.
I understand that when the OS initially creates the FS and inodes, its pretty strict, but not always tuned to a 1:1 ratio. I see the same thing when adding a whole disk LV to a separate device.
It seems that when we expand a filesystem the inodes don't get tuned... (5 Replies)
