What is VAR ?
-
Noob question .. I was looking at screenshots of other peoples pfsense dashboard and most of them do not have VAR beside the disk usage
Mine is..
/ (ufs): 0% of 436G
/var/run (ufs in RAM): 5% of 3.4Mand I have no idea why it has %5 and how to make it 0 and why there is even a VAR there in the first place.

Making it 0 will crash your pfSense. Leave the thing alone.

hahah ok!!! ty
I'm just worried its getting bigger in size -
As you can see from the snapshot, it may be using whopping 3.4 MiB of your RAM maximum. If that's an issue, you have more important issues to solve.

thx dr.
I thought I had somehow made a partition only 3.4MB in size when I installed pfsense and was filling it up!
I understand now that the bottom part /var/run (ufs in RAM) is what is in RAM and not taking up space on my hard drive.
Alls ok now no issues here anymore!
