Hi,

Check the Filesystem /export/sapmnt/SID with the following Tcode

a) ST06N ( for older version like 4.6c ST06)

b) Under Snapshot dropdown menu Double click on Filesystem check for space % ( if it is same or above which mentioned in the alert)

If Filesystem /export/sapmnt/SID diskspace utilization exceeds 80% with the following Tcodes :-

a) AL11 --- Double click on DIR_HOME (/usr/sap/<SID>/DVEBMGS<nr>/work/)

b) check for the core file If you find any core file Login as <SID>adm in putty. Then delete the core file with the following commands :-

c) cd /usr/sap/<SID>/DVEBMGS<nr>/work/

d) rm core

If filesystem is not reduced then you can reduce the size with the following Tcodes :-

SM50 Process Reset All FilesWork Process Files ( Please take all approvals from team lead to reset work process files)

b) Please do not reset twice. For the first time it will save the trace files with .old extension. For the second time it will delete all the trace files that are saved .old extension

Find the large files present in /usr/sap/<SID> and in sub directories

Login as <SID>adm in putty.

a) cd /usr/sap/<SID>

b) du -sk * (this command gives files and directory sizes present in /usr/sap/<SID> )

c) Fine the large directories and move to that directory with the command cd /< sub directory name>

d)Follow the same b and c steps and find out the large files which are consuming more size and copy that files into notepad and provide the same to team lead for the approval to move or delete that files.

you can view at os level sorting by created date and page wise

ls -lt | more

ls -ltr | more

for reverse order
