Hi,

Frequently my file system for /usr/openv getting filled up

When I check the size of largest folder,its the below,

/usr/openv/netbackup/db/error

root@xxx # ls -ltr
total 36283506

Can the older date cbu_ & log_ files can be deleted ?Will it cause any NB instability ?

If yes kindly advise a alternate

NOTE : I cannot go for FS additional space,as recently I got around 30GB added and they said further expansion is not possible

Rather than continually repeatedly manually deleting log files, and risk deleting something which you should not... perhaps try reducing the error log retention:

...also take a look at:

...and this shows how to modify the retention period of the logs in /db/error:
