Cleaning Up Files
If you are running low on storage space, use the file cleanup procedure to quickly identify
files to delete.
The file cleanup procedure performs the following tasks:
•
Rotates log files—Archives the current log files, and creates fresh log files.
•
Deletes log files in /var/log—Deletes files that are not currently being written to.
•
Deletes temporary files in /var/tmp—Deletes files that have not been accessed within
two days.
•
Deletes all crash files in /var/crash—Deletes core files that the switch has written during
an error.
To rotate log files and delete unnecessary files with the J-Web interface:
1. Select Maintain > Files.
2. In the Clean Up Files section, click Clean Up Files. The switching platform rotates log
files and identifies files that can be safely deleted.

that will be freed on the file system.

•
To delete the files and return to the Files page, click OK.
