How to deal with the using up space of /opt/oracle

513756Dec 14 2006 — edited Dec 14 2006

Hello, all

We have an Oracle 10g preinstalled in a linux server (Rh 9). Now the system reports that the /opt/oracle is using up. The alert says:
Filesystem /opt/oracle has only 19% available space

Because I didn't install the Oracle dababase, I didn't have the chance to select a place for the filesystem. Now the /opt/oracle is on the /dev/sda6 which is only 7.1G. I want to know what kind of information are stored here? Should it keep growing? Our database running on the Oracle is a small one, and it shouldn't occupy so much space. By the way, I scheduled the backup to disk (another hard disk) everyday. Is there any copy of the backup on /opt/oracle? How can I deal with it?

Any advice is highly appreciated!
