Root Directory Junk Files

$
0
0

I have an ESXi server that appears to have several junk files in the / (root) directory.

 

I guess that an erroneous script accidentally created these files, but now I am not sure which I can delete, and which I can remove.

 

Could anyone post an ls -lah from the / (root) directory of a healthy ESXi 5?

 

Here is mine:

~ # ls -lah
