SPX86-8002-VP - The /var/log filesystem has exceeded the filesystem capacity limit.

The following error message sounds ominous:

SPX86-8002-VP - The /var/log filesystem has exceeded the filesystem capacity limit.

and from Cloud control:




A processor component is suspected of causing a fault with a 100% certainty. Component Name : /SYS/SP Fault class : fault.chassis.device.misconfig

But in fact, most  of the time its not as bad as it sounds.

More often than not, rebooting the ILOM does the trick and then this error goes away.

Just go to /SP in ILOM and reset it. The next ILOM snapshot would clear it away which takes sometime.
