Good afternoon,

I've got two almost identical Linux systems (they're running VMWare ESX but
for the purpose of this discussion, I need Linux help). Both systems have
5GB root partitions with separate /var/log and /vmfs (the special volumes
where virtual machines are stored) partitions. One of the systems has a 100%
in use root volume.Using the command:
find / -mount -size +10240000c -exec du -h {} \; | less
I've found eleven files, nothing larger than 75M.

I suspect there are a butt load of small (log?) or hidden files accumulating
somewhere but I'm not sure how to find them. Any suggestions would be
appreciated.

Thanks,
Scott

PS don't forget, I've got a separate /var/log volume so the problem is not
there.
