SSH - how to clean the folder/directory ../vg00-var

[JanzZ]

Hi,

I kept increasing the size of the /dev/mapper/vg00-var folder but it's too big now. What is it actually for? And can I just delete the stuff inside? If yes, can you tell me the commands?

Just to be more specific, this is what there now:

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/md1 3.7G 383M 3.3G 11% /
/dev/mapper/vg00-usr 4.0G 2.5G 1.5G 63% /usr
/dev/mapper/vg00-var 41G 41G 0 100% /var
/dev/mapper/vg00-home

Thank you very much
Regards
Jan

Please check your /var partition and find our which file or dir making the huge size .You can issue the following command from the /var dir .

du -csh ./*
