I @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

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
