Disk partition var has less than 40%

Just received the above message. Can someone tell me what this means and what needs to be done please?

 

  • Hi smurteira,

    This is a warning message by diskmonitor utility, which is a script that runs periodically on the BIG-IP system and alerts you if the partition space or volumes reach a defined threshold.

    Here are some recommendations to avoid this situation.

    You can also check the size of the main folders by typing: df -h on bash.

                        **6.9G  286M  6.3G   5% /var/log**
    none                  6.9G  924K  6.9G   1% /dev/shm
    none                  6.9G   45M  6.9G   1% /shared/rrd.1.2
    none                  6.9G   25M  6.9G   1% /var/tmstat
    none                  6.9G  1.6M  6.9G   1% /var/run
    prompt                4.0M   28K  4.0M   1% /var/prompt
    none                  6.9G     0  6.9G   0% /var/loipc
