I have a pair of Juniper SRX 240 H running in company network environment. Recently it has to be upgraded to JunOS 11.4R5.5 which is latest recommended version. First thing I checked is the available space on those two devices. It seems node0 used 130m more space to storage files based on following command:
show system storage

Delete these files ? [yes,no] (no)
But still not too much space freed up.
Followed these steps from
“
After the cleanup, if there is still not enough space for the upgrade, perform the following procedure:
- Start the shell by using start shell command on the CLI.
- Issue the following command on the shell:
find -x /cf/var -type f -exec du -k {} ; | sort –n
- Delete the files at the end of the above generated output. Here is an example:
18256 /cf/var/lost+found/#11136/flowd_octeon.core.1.gz
19600 /cf/var/lost+found/#11136/flowd_octeon.core.0.gzThe first column displays the file size in kilobytes and the second column displays the file location. - You can also find files, which are greater in than the specific value. For example, the following command will show files whose size will be more than 10MB:
sh -c 'find / -size +10485760c 2> /dev/null' | xargs du -h | sort -nr
“
% sh -c 'find / -size +10485760c 2> /dev/null' | xargs du -h | sort -nr
210M /cf/packages/junos-10.4R8.5-domestic
32M /cf/var/db/idpd/db/secdb.d02
27M /usr/sbin/flowd_octeon_hm
24M /usr/sbin/flowd_octeon
20M /cf/var/db/idpd/nsm-download/SignatureUpdate.xml

12M /cf/var/db/ai_cache/dfa_group_cache.d02
11M /mfs/var/run/db/schema.db
10M /usr/sbin/authd
Another interesting thing is software backup can not be deleted for somehow even we requested to do system software delete-backup.
# run show system software backup
Backup JUNOS package information:
File name: /altroot/cf/packages/junos-11.2R2.4-domestic
File size: 145507179> request system software delete-backup
Delete backup system software package [yes,no] (no) yes
