If a log or core file has caused /opt to be filled up then it will have a recent date and time stamp so you can do something like:

Code:
# find /opt -mount -type f -mtime -7 -ls

And you will get a long listing of all file modified in the last 7 days.

Sorry for the late reply. Thanks for the Help
I rebooted the server and things are back to normal now.
as mentioned this issue was due to OPEN FILES. and reeboot was the easiest way to sort it out.

the reboot was mentioned 5 days ago... so, yes that was because it is easy and can safe a lot of work!

In the first post you "cleared all the logs". Time to acquaint yourself with which processes hold log files open and the correct procedure to maintain those logs. Where there is no procedure supplied it is often better to copy and trunctate active logs rather than just deleting them.

As with all Systems Administration issues it helps to know which Operating System.
