.nfsXXXXX hidden files generated under weblogic logs directory
We have a WLS domain versioned 12.2.1.0 hosted on RHEL 7.5
I can see .nfsXXXX hidden files created at location ManagedServer/logs once the weblogic gets started ,the contents of these files are same as logs.
All the .nfsXXXX hidden files get cleared/deleted automatically once the weblogic process is shutdown and it starts generating again after the weblogic is started. This is occupying lot of disk space.
The domain location comes from a NFS share.
I tried deleting one of the files manually however it threw error as Device or Resource Busy.
rm: cannot remove ‘.nfsXXXXXXXXXXXX’: Device or resource busy
How to figure out the files are generated and fix it accordingly.
