Checking for printer requests and large mail files
The CVUE extract process first copies the files that are being migrated to the new system
to the /var/tmp/new directory, then copies the files to tape. If the system does not have
enough disk space to create this first copy to /var/tmp/new, the system may run out of
space and the extract will fail.
Before you continue with the upgrade, check the following directories for old print requests
and large, unneeded mail files that may be taking up space:
● /var/spool/lp/requests
● /var/mail/root
● /var/mail/root2
● /var/mail/cms
Delete any unneeded files.
