HP UX 10.20 E9000 System Full?
Hi
We have an old GIS system running on unix 10.20. Our IT department have kinda washed their hands of it I'm having a problem where the system seems to but full. It had been working find for the last few years but now the drive seems to be full. It is only used for viewing old information so nothing has been added to it in years. I take it some sort of temp files are filling up the drive?. I'm a bit of a novice but have root access so should be able to try some solution if anyone has some?.
Cheers
Sorry probably should of put this on the Unix for dummies section

Hi All,
There was a background process running on a Solaris 2.8 machine, and appeared to have filled all available disk-space. I done a killall, and upon re-booting found that the file system had filled up, and will not boot as normal as a result. For example, I'm getting

MCOPY(1) General Commands Manual MCOPY(1)
NAME
mcopy - copy MSDOS files to/from Unix
SYNOPSIS
mcopy [ -tnvm ] sourcefile targetfile
mcopy [ -tnvm ] sourcefile [ sourcefiles... ] targetdirectory
DESCRIPTION
Mcopy copies the specified file to the named file, or copies multiple files to the named directory. The source and target can be either
MSDOS or Unix files.
The use of a drive letter designation on the MSDOS files, 'a:' for example, determines the direction of the transfer. A missing drive des-
ignation implies a Unix file whose path starts in the current directory
Mcopy will allow the following command line options:
t Text file transfer. Mcopy will translate incoming carriage return/line feeds to line feeds.
n No warning. Mcopy will not warn the user when overwriting an existing file.
v Verbose mode.
m Preserve the file modification time.
If the target file already exists, and the -n option is not in effect, mcopy asks whether or not to overwrite the file.
MSDOS subdirectory names are supported with either the '/' or '' separator. The use of the '' separator or wildcards will require the
names to be enclosed in quotes to protect them from the shell.
The mcd command may be used to establish the device and the current working directory (relative to MSDOS), otherwise the default is A:/.
SEE ALSO
mcd(1), mread(1), mwrite(1)
BUGS
Unlike MSDOS, the destination directory may not be omitted.
The '+' operator (append) from MSDOS is not supported.
No other Mtools command requires the use of a drive letter designation on MSDOS files.
