In Home "Server Status "Service Status it shows /tmp as using 2.86 of the 3.00 GB. With SSH using the command Running tmpwatch only removed 1M of data /usr/sbin/tmpwatch --mtime --all 24 /tmp du -sh /tmp only shows 12M Looking at the files in /tmp then there are no large files or folders. But on Server Status it is still 1.86GB full. Why is Server Status showing /tmp as full?

  For anyone with the same problem: Run lsof /tmp Kill the process that has been deleted but is still locked and using lots of space.
