You say that you inherited this machine and that the hard drive is almost full. You have a non-global zone there called bristol-jes which is occupying some space (might be a lot of space).
Zones can be whole root which means that they have ALL the files of a stand-alone system or non-root which means that they share things like libraries with the global zone.
The path of bristol-jes is /data/zones/bristol-jes so take a look in there. Use
to see how much space is used.
You could try and boot this other system (zone) using
.
You can then login to this other system with command
from the global zone (if you know the password).
If you can login then you can look around and figure out what this system does.
You can use
or
to close down this system once logged in or use
to stop it abruptly from the global zone.
If you don't need this zone (system) you could delete it using
.
See your man pages for syntax for all this stuff.
You might be able to release a lot of space.
Hope that helps.

Having solved the original problem and I'm sure we've created a thread of interest to many in the future, we have wondered off the original subject matter (PGX32) into backup and zones (although to be fair zones was part of the original probem). Before we get fingers smacked by moderators, can I ask them to mark this thread as [solved] and CLOSED?

Is there a way to get to the OK prompt? I have tried control/break and that does not work.
