/var: filesystem full

[harsto]

Dear members,
since yesterday did i upgrade to the new version ..p1 Bugfix Release of Freenas (FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE-p5 #2 r244158M: Wed Dec 12 10:04:42 PST 2012) to solve the GUI probleme with nginx. The gui workes now fine, but i see some strange message in my /var/log/message file. I see periodicly the following error messages:
Dec 19 20:25:00 ******X kernel: pid 2098 (syslogd), uid 0 inumber 30914 on /var: filesystem full
Dec 19 20:25:01 ******X kernel: pid 3940 (winbindd), uid 0 inumber 27841 on /var: filesystem full
Dec 19 20:25:32 ******X last message repeated 31 times
Dec 19 20:25:59 ******X last message repeated 27 times
I am a little bit concerned while this machine is scheduled for productive services. Has anybody seen this messages also? How can I solve?

Best regards

Harald

Check what file is taking so much space in /var, there are tons of posts with the same question in the forum.

Thank you very much for your reply, but the /var filesystem is not always full only in special situations. Right now did i catch the file which ist the reason:
./tmp:
total 111727

drwxr-xr-x 26 root wheel 512 Dec 20 10:05 ../

like you can see is it named krb5cc_0. After deleting seemed the world ok again. But why is this file so big??

Seems like the cache file for the credentials in your AD, no idea why it is that big.

Could it caused in the enterprice grade of my Active Directory? Like you can see do I use

[root@******x] ~# wbinfo -u|wc -l
5402
[root@******x] ~# wbinfo -g | wc -l
5541
[root@******XX] ~#
5402 users in 5541 groups?

Best regards
