[CentOS] mysql-bin files - filling up the space.

2012-05-03 Thread Prabhpal S. Mavi 

Dear All Greetings,

i am seeking help from guys with mysql knowledge. i can see lot of these
files in mysql directory. And they are eventually filling up the space on
the server. what these files are? some exists with very old time stamps.
such as February 2012. can these be deleted?

This Number Starts From ---mysql-bin.01

-rw-rw  1 mysql  mysql   159M Apr 25 12:24 mysql-bin.000197
-rw-rw  1 mysql  mysql 5M Apr 26 00:00 mysql-bin.000198
