[nv-l] AIX 5.2 /var over 80%

["Zoeckler, Eric A." <Eric.Zoeckler@us.ngrid.com>]

NV 7.1.4 AIX 5.2

Via support calls I picked up on the idea that when /var increases in size to about 80%, netview starts having problems.  This seems to be true as I have seen netview have miscelaneous problems and sure enough /var has grown to over 80%, the magic number.  When the AIX admins add and/or clear space netview immediately and noticeabley functions better, faster (we're running off the server via Hummingbird Exceed X-windows).  Does anyone have an understanding of what's going on with this? Or do you know of some docs on this subject?

Thank you!
