Crash dump files can be very large, so if you have enabled your system to store these files, do not retain them for longer than necessary.
Change to the directory where crash dump files are stored.
# cd /var/crash/system |
system |
System that created the crash dump files. |
Be sure you are in the right directory before completing the following step. The next step deletes all files in the current directory.
Remove the crash dump files.
# rm * |
Verify the crash dump files are removed.
# ls |
The following example shows how to remove crash dump files from the system venus, and how to verify that the crash dump files were removed.
# cd /var/crash/venus # rm * # ls |
