partition(s) have exceeded the 95% threshold

[cmg06]

Hello,

I'm running a FreeBSD server and have been getting this error message recently.

This is an automated message notifying you that the following partition(s) have exceeded the 95% threshold:

98% - /var

What does this mean? Please advise. Thanks!

It means you're running out of space on your /var partition. The two largest uses of space in the /var partition are the logs (make sure your logrotate is working) and, i f you're using mbox for email delivery (the DA default), email stored on the server.
