I have a OpenVZ VPS running CentOS 5.7 that I've been using to get some sysadmin experience.
I found a log file called brcm-iscsi.log in /var/log and it's getting big (140 MB).

I don't know much about iSCSI - I get that it's a SAN protocol, but that's about it. I've certainly never setup any volumes outside of the disk space I got with my VPS. Could my VPS be relying on this in some way? I wouldn't want to trash it, although I'm getting quite practiced at reloading the VPS... I also wouldn't want to screw up anyone else's nodes.

Google it and you come up with plenty links (Check out this one, for instance https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/open-iscsi/S3ps_mqzd_k) If you do not know what iscsi is (basically, SCSI over the wire: low level access to network disks) chances are good you won't be using it any time soon so you can remove/stop all the related cruft.
