Large file `` zstat-process `` work-around to reclaim the space.

1.Find the file location

# du -ad / | sort -n -r | head -n 10

15999511        /var/adm/exacct/zstat-process

2. To check the file type

# file zstat-process

zstat-process:  extended accounting file

3.To display the current status of the extended accounting facility

# acctadm

Task accounting: inactive

       Task accounting file: none

     Tracked task resources: none

   Untracked task resources: extended        

   Process accounting:active ----à

    Process accounting file: /var/adm/exacct/zstat-process

  Tracked process resources: pid,cpu,time,ancpid,zone

Untracked process resources: uid,gid,projid,taskid,command,tty,host,mstate,flag,wait-status,memory

            Flow accounting: inactive

       Flow accounting file: none

4. To Turn off process accounting. (if requires.)

# acctadm -x process 

5. Restart the service 

# svcs -a | grep zstat

online         Aug_04   svc:/application/xvm/zstat:default

# svcadm restart svc:/application/xvm/zstat:default

# svcs -a | grep zstat

Basic Audit Reporting Tool

 Basic Audit Reporting Tool (BART)

A propose auditing. There is a small but cool tool in Solaris. It solves the problem of "No,i haven't changed anything on the system". It's called BART, the Basic Audit Reporting Tool. It a really simple tool and it's really easy to use.

Usage

Okay, let's assume after some days of work you _nally con_gured all components of your

new system. Okay, create a nice place to store the output of the bart tool. After this

you start bart for the _rst time to create the _rst manifest of your system.

# mkdir /bart – files

# bart create -R /etc > /bart - files /etc. control . manifest

The manifest stores all informations about the _les. This is the example for the

<code>/etc/nsswitch.nisplus</code>:

# cat etc. control . manifest | grep "/ nsswitch . nisplus "

/ nsswitch . nisplus F 2525 100644 user ::rw -, group ::r--, mask :r--,

other :r-- 473976 b5 0 3 79 e8fd689a5221d1cd059e5077da71b8

Now lets change some files:

# touch /etc/ thisisjustatest

# chmod 777 /etc/ nsswitch . files

# echo "# just a test " >> /etc/ nsswitch . nisplus

Okay, enough changes. Let's create a new manifest of the changed /etc. Pipe it to a

di_erent _le.

# bart create -R /etc > /bart - files /etc. check20080202 . manifest

Now we can compare the baseline manifest with the actual manifest.

# cd /bart - files

# bart compare etc. control . manifest etc. check20080202 . manifest

14 Basic Audit Reporting Tool

This command prints all di_erences between the two manifests and thus the di_erence

between the tow states of the system

/ nsswitch . files :

mode control :100644 test :100777

acl control : user ::rw -, group ::r--, mask :r--, other :r-- test :

user :: rwx , group :: rwx , mask :rwx , other :rwx

/ nsswitch . nisplus :

size control :2525 test :2538

mtime control :473976 b5 test :47 a44862

contents control :79 e8fd689a5221d1cd059e5077da71b8 test :3

f79176ec352441db11ec8a3d02ef67c

/ thisisjustatest :

Add

 A really nice tool.
