One place to look for things that are growing in /usr is TSM:
If you have TSM accounting turned on, the accounting data goes to
/usr/tivoli/tsm/server/bin/dsmaccnt.log by default.
That file will continue to grow. There is some way in TSM 3.7, I think, to
direct the accounting file to another directory. Or what we do is have a
cron script that copies the file off to another place on the 1st of the
month, then clears out the one in the server directory.
Also the client code, if you have it running, may be creating dsmerror.log
and dsmsched.log in the install directory, which is
/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin. You can direct those elsewhere by setting
options in the dsm.sys file.
