300-710 SNCF Management And Troubleshooting Practice Question

An administrator notices that health monitors on the FMC show a critical warning for high disk utilization on the /var partition of an FTD device. What is the safest and most standard method to resolve disk space exhaustion caused by accumulated core files and rotated logs on FTD?

Answer choices

Why each option matters

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.

Correct answer & explanation

Use the FTD CLI command 'system support clean-core' and delete old rotated log files.

The command 'system support purge log' or clearing rotated logs and core files via expert mode is used, but specifically, FMC allows administrators to manage and delete core files and rotated logs safely through the FTD CLI or FMC device management settings.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • Delete files directly in the /mnt/disk0/ directory using rm -rf without checking dependencies.

    Why it's wrong here

    Deleting arbitrary files can corrupt the FTD file system and cause severe system instability.

  • Re-image the FTD device using a bootable USB drive.

    Why it's wrong here

    Re-imaging is drastic and unnecessary for log or core file disk exhaustion.

  • Run 'system support reset-all' from the FTD CLI.

    Why it's wrong here

    This resets the FTD configuration to factory defaults, which is not appropriate for clearing disk space.

  • Use the FTD CLI command 'system support clean-core' and delete old rotated log files.

    Why this is correct

    Clearing core files and old logs safely frees space on the /var partition without affecting active configurations.
