Johnny, yes I think you can safely move it to another disk. You might set the sysgen
parameter that forces (scaled down) dumps to be written in the swapfile though. (how large
are page- & swapfile each btw?).

PS?
Decservers may force dump files at ?other stages than boot time but usually on their boot
host. Which is most likely a pdp-11 when around ;-)

It's in SYS$MANAGER. At 25000 blocks (roughly) it is larger than I would
expect, but it's not enourmous.
Next have a look at the ?*.dmp files, if you have
decservers.
No DECservers are booting from VMS here. RSX responds before VMS blinks.
But SYS$SYSTEM:SYSDUMP.DMP was impressively large... I wonder if I can
remove that.
$ dir sys$system:*.dmp/siz
Directory SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSEXE]
ERRORLOG.DMP;1 2049
SYSDUMP.DMP;1 2621449
Total of 2 files, 2623498 blocks.

I've way rusty on VMS, so I figured someone
here can probably give me an
answer way faster than I can figure it out myself.
I brought SIGGE:: online two days ago. (VAX 7000-720). Started YCPIP
services as well. Now the disk is full. I'm guessing some logging
somewhere, as people are crazy about probing and poking. TELNET stopped
working, but I can log in fine from DECnet or LAT.
Can anyone tell me where logs go, and how to clean it up so I free some
disk.
Something like:
$ PURGE SYS$SYSDEVICE:[000000...]*.*LOG*;
After that you might like to use something like DFU to locate large
files. You can pick DFU up here:

Also, are there some known issue with the telnet
server? If I telnet to
the machine, it's just constantly spewing out one character. Probably 0xff.
I'm not too sure. Which version of TCP/IP are you using?
Regards, Tim.
