Server Storage Cleanup

If you run out of space on your Corellium server, you can follow these steps to clean up storage.

Remove old installation files​

Your appliance may have old installation files that can be removed.

rm -rf /usr/share/corellium/installer.staging
rm -rf /opt/stack/corellium/images/*.staging

Review the list of syslog files​

You can review the list of syslog files to see if there are any old logs that can be removed.

find /var/log -type f -exec du -h {} + 2>/dev/null | sort -h

If you see large syslog.*.gz files, you can remove them.

Clean out the home directory​

Search for large files.

find /root -type f -exec du -h {} + 2>/dev/null | sort -h | tail -n 20

Search for large directories.

du -hsx /root/* 2>/dev/null
# And follow the directories down to where the space is used.

Look for any remaining large files​

Outside of the home and log directories, you can look for any remaining large files.

find / -type f -exec du -h {} + 2>/dev/null | sort -h | tail -n 20
du -hsx /* 2>/dev/null
# And follow the directories down to where the space is used.

Move the home directory (optional)​

One option is to move the home directory to /var/ipsw and bind mount it to /root, which will allow you to keep the home directory on a larger partition.

cp $HOME /var/ipsw/
rm -rf /root
echo "/var/ipsw/root /root none defaults,bind 0 0" >> /etc/fstab
reboot

After you untar the install file​

Extract the tarball to the home directory, but delete the tar file (which is is over 10GB) but before you run the installer script.

rm /root/<corellium_release_name>.tar.xz

Installation diagnostics​

  1. If the installation fails, please send the full diagnostics zip file

    crlm-node /usr/share/corellium/installer/diagnostics.js
  2. If the diagnostics command fails, please manually send following log and config files as a zip file.

    /etc/corellium/config.json
    /etc/corellium/coordinator.json
    /etc/corellium/package.json
    /etc/corellium/setup.json
    /var/log/syslog
