Large Folders on Common Partition Var-Connection
I have folders on my common partition of a Unity Connection server called

common/var-connection/mail/unitymbxdb1 which seems to be full of random voicemails from specific points in time.

and another called /common/var-connection-12.5.1.11900-94-1561570765 which seems to have a copy(?) of the active version database and such?

And lastly /common/var-connection-12.5.1.10000-311-1561492367 which is my inactive version

Both are taking up exorbitant amounts of space and the freecommonspace cop isn't killing them

Can I clean these out myself somehow or am I opening a TAC case in the AM?

Re: Large Folders on Common Partition Var-Connection [ In reply to ]
I had a somewhat similar situation with one very large and very full mailstore and had tried creating additional mail stores and migrating mailboxes to the new mailstores, but the database was still retaining links and the migration jobs didn’t clean the storage so the original mailstore maintained a very large size.
I did not try manually cleaning the files.
It took 2 sessions of a tac engineer with root access updating the database and forcing stored procedures to run, several times. It was on 11.5 though… couldn’t upgrade to 12.5 until that was cleaned.

Not sure if the old “free space on common” cop file would work, but in theory it might.

Thanks,

Already ran it. It does not. Off to TAC this morning it is!
