Hello @itsmezeeshan, Hope you are doing good. Its not recommended to clear the space from this location. As these the binaries for the Cloudera Manager packages for the following services (cloudera-host-monitor, cloudera-scm-agent, cloudera-scm-eventserver, cloudera-scm-headlamp, cloudera-scm-server,  cloudera-scm-server-db, cloudera-service-monitor)

[root@mprl509 lib]# du -sh cloudera-*
1.3G cloudera-host-monitor
300K cloudera-scm-agent
20M cloudera-scm-eventserver
4.6M cloudera-scm-headlamp
3.0G cloudera-scm-server
272M cloudera-scm-server-db
5.5G cloudera-service-monitor

I would like to recommend you to please increase the disk space to 20 GB More.

@itsmezeeshan No it's not recommended to move these files. as your CM server is dependent on it. 

 

Could you please share the output of the below commands:

 

# df -h | tee -a /tmp/df.out

# du -hs /* | tee -a /tmp/du.out

As per requirement, please find below result against both commands

In addition as per your last comments, we can see you have a considerable amount of data under your /home directory.

 

ex: 

15G /home

 

Could you please check if you can remove some data from it? 

 

Thanks
