Ambari - clean files

[#1]

I want to upgrade Ambari, but /var directory completely full.

Filesystem Type Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on

/dev/mapper/rootvg-varfs xfs 9.0G 8.4G 704M 93% /var

Can i delete (old) and backups files in /var/lib/ambari-server/resources/ safely?

Yes, the mentioned ".old" directories can be deleted.

Regarding the "/var/lib/ambari-server/resources/views/work" directory , Even if we delete this directory when we will restart the ambari server again then this directory will be created automatically, Because ambari server extracts the views (jars) into this directory so this directory will be again filled with the extracted views apps.

However it will be good to see if you can increase the "/var" directory space.
