      Should I be worried that /var/dhcpd/dev is showing 100% used?  I have 150 VLAN environment and concerned this might be causing DHCP issues.

      I know from other posts that /dev is always 100% but /var/dhcpd/dev should not?

      Is it worth increasing 1K size and if so, how to do this.  Or should I just enable RAM disk?

      /root: df -h
      Filesystem                    Size    Used  Avail Capacity  Mounted on
      /dev/ufsid/5722454b6eef820b    77G    736M    70G    1%    /
      devfs                          1.0K    1.0K      0B  100%    /dev
      /dev/md0                      3.4M    112K    3.0M    3%    /var/run
      devfs                          1.0K    1.0K      0B  100%    /var/dhcpd/dev

        No that is fine. It is simply the /dev directory that is in the dhcpd chroot environment just like the other /dev.

        It is a special filesystem for representing device nodes. It always shows 100% used.
