General :: CentOS 5 - Available Disk Space Always 0 Percent
Jun 16, 2011
I am running centos 5. So far, it gives no problem but just yesterday, when it reported "no free space" for file writing, I try to remove some file as usual. Unfortunately this time no matter how much files I had deleted, it just keep showing no available space for doing so.
Result from df:
[root@LSMSVR ~]# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00
1.2G 269M 879M 24% /
/dev/hda6 4.8G 138M 4.4G 4% /tmp

/dev/hda1 99M 15M 80M 16% /boot
tmpfs 180M 0 180M 0% /dev/shm
ow to recover the lost space in /home?

I am trying to install CentOS 5.2, and the installation ran out of disk space after running for about 2 hours.I checked the FAQ, and it said 1.2 GB. The disk is 3 GB. The default install was selected, and I think that it checks for sufficient available disk space before installing. Still, it ran for quite a while before announcing that it was out of disk space.The Installation Guide is not very helpful, since there is a blank page where the disk space requirement is supposed to be. I just picked the default installation. A search of the forums on "not enough disk space" did not return much.

I am running Centos 5.5 in vmware and recently had to increase my disk space from 20GB to 40GB. I understand that in linux, the increased disk space is not automatically reflected but as I am new to this topic, I am not sure how I can go about doing this. how to see what's the available space and how I can partition(?) this.
For your reference:
[root@localhost ~]# fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 42.9 GB, 42949672960 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 5221 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Need to know if there are any known errors allocating disk space using rsync. I have recently setup a small file backup server (2 500GB drives) running Centos 5.2, with a rsync daemon (via xinetd). However I have noticed that after about a week of usage, if I reboot, then the disk that rsync uses, has a lot of multiply claimed blocks and inode errors, such that I have to run fsck multiple times to fix. This has happened a couple of times now so I don't think that its random.

I have a dedicated server that has CentOS 5.5 installed.. I can access that server via SSH as root. Now the issue is.. httpdocs folder is situated in /var where all website data is stored. I have more than 50GB of website that needs to be transfered to this partition but this partition is of 4.0GB..
# cat /etc/fstab
/dev/md1 / ext3 defaults 1 1
/dev/sda2 none swap sw

I don't understand disk sizes in Linux. I have a 500GB drive. It's ext4. I have run "tune2fs -m 0" on it to reserve the amount of space reserved for root to 0.
I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 that comes with a Disk Utility. When I run "System->Administration->Disk Utility (palimpsest)" the disk shows up as 500GB (see picture). But when I run df -h it shows up as 459GB. So, I don't understand the discrepancy.
When I run df I get the following:
Question: Why is Disk Utility showing me something different than "df"?

I've added a new LUN to my Centos 5.2 server using Powerpath and have added it to an ext3 logical volume. I extended the logical volume using lvextend and the new space shows up correctly in lvdisplay. What I'm having problems with is getting Centos to see the new disk space (df -h shows 500GB, not 600GB as expected). I've tried running a resize2fs on the new volume but it tells me that "the filesystem is already n blocks long. Nothing to do". Does any one know where I'm going wrong? If possible I'd like to sort this without a reboot.

A part of the disk space is unavailable: Only 37 GB out of 80GB is accessible A part of the disk space is unavailable: Only 37 GB out of 80GB is accessible. I have a vmware instance of CentOS setup with 80GB of Hard Disk space ( Preallocated). When I login to the system I only see 35 GB.

I'm trying to setup my test nagios to check the disk space of another linux box. I've got it setup and checking. But to my surprise, it was checking the nagios server's local disk space instead of the remote linux.
Here is my services.cfg.
define service{
use basic-service
name disk-space

Today I was installing a lot of software since I'm just setting up my Slackware system again after a fresh install, and I realized that my root partition has very little space left.
Here is the output of df -h:
Code:
As you can see, I have a 20G (19G here for some reason) root partition, 8G /var, and 86G of /home. I thought this would be plenty since many recent recommendations for / are 10-15G. Now, though, 17G are used up for some reason! How is this possible? I thought a full slackware install only had about 4G of software! I don't have any music or movies or any crazy huge files that I know of, and those would be in my /home directory anyway. Is there any way I can see which files are taking up all this space?
If it's necessary to allocate more space to my / partition, is it still possible to boot up a GParted live Cd, shrink /home a bit, move some partitions to the right, and expand my root partition? I would REALLY prefer I don't have to reinstall since I just spent a ton of time setting up my system again, but if worst comes to worst ... :'-(
In case you're curious, here's my /etc/fstab:

My disk space has grown from 30% to 60% in the last 3 months.
I can only assume this is from log files in the form of maillogs and squid logs.
Any ideas on how to free up the space? I'm pretty sure I have logroate running.
I just ran this on the mail log files:

OS: RHEL AS 5 64-bit
HDD:300 GB Hardware mirror (HP blade bl460c)
While installing OS, in partition window after OS file system structure I've left 277 GB. But after installation it shows Size - 255GB and available disk space is 242 GB.
Isn't it weired? How can I use the total amount of space in Linux? I need the whole 277GB exactly. What should be my workaround?

Had this problem in a few different instances where a process was creating a set of files in directory and using those files.
Some one just happened to go to the dir and deleted those files without stopping the process. The result being that as the process is still telling the machine that the disk usage is still what it initially was (df -h shows the old disk usage) , where as a du -h or a ls -lh on that same dir show that the files are not there.
Once this happened with mysql where the user delete the database dir in /var/database_name in the mysql home dir. The result being that the dusk usage was still showing as the old one even if the files were missing. This was resolved by restarting the mysql server.
Similar thing happened with some other processes where on restarting the problem was resolved..
My question being is there a method to solve this problem by whithout restarting the concerned process.. Some magical command like free disk or recheck dis usage :-) .. may be too much to ask but can some one help me out here.

I want to use awk to list all the mount points, disk size and space available. Now I have all that info but I want to round the totals, so there is no delimiters, how can I do that?
PHP Code:
#!/bin/sh
date
df=`df -Pl | grep "^/dev" | awk '{print $6, $2/1024 , $4/1024}' | sed "s/%//"`
echo "$df"

Our CentOS 5.5 server has an intermittent problem where kswapd0 begins using 100% CPU, driving the system load to 20-30 and higher, and eventually crashes the server. The problem seems to be triggered by an intensive Java process (Lucene indexing), but only once every month or two. Lucene reindexing normally runs every 15 minutes without a problem. When the problem happens, there is still plenty of free RAM (as measured by /usr/bin/free's "buffers/cache" value, which is 1.5GB) and free swap space. The server is running MediaWiki 1.15 with the standard CentOS Apache, PHP, MySQL. My intuition is that this is a kernel/swapper bug.

I am running Ubuntu 10.04 on one 80GiB disk partitioned as two equal. The second one is mounted as my home folder. The reasons for the partitioning are historic and I don't think they're relevant here.
My problem is that Ubuntu frequently reports 'Low Disk Space'. The initial solution was to turn off backups and that seemed to ease the problem. Now it has started happening again, but backups are still turned off. I can't see anything unusual in the tmp directory - or anywhere come to that - but I don't really know where to look.
I have searched for known leaky problems but haven't found anything that seems to fit. I don't store images, videos or music.

The partition is formatted to ext3, starting with block 1 on the drive. The mount point for /dev/sdc1 lists 0 files when doing `ls -A` `df -h` shows that the partition has 92MB used. How is this space being used, and how can I free it up?edit: I guess this isn't a newbie question.

I seem to be running low on disk space on my linux server. 'df' shows about 82% usage on a stock CentOS install with sendmail. I routinely delete old email directories, but for some reason, I stay pretty high in disk usage. Is there a fancy little bash script or something I could run that would find the biggest files and I could go get rid of them?

I am using Ubuntu in a laptop. The C disk has 15GB, and Windows is installed in C disk. I installed Netbook Ubuntu in D disk which only has 10GB free space. Now I am trying to install some applications in ubuntu such as emacs. But the system says it only has about 450Mb disk space. So how could I get more space? Can I install the applications under some different path? without using apt-get?

I need a script to fill up my diskspace on my Linux box. It would be best if I can leave 200 MB free. I have Nagios installed, and it should email me when something like this happens, but how do I test it?I have Perl and PHP installed so if you want to use that then sure.

Purchased (4) 2TiB Drives (actual disk space) and created a RAID5 array expecting to have 6TB of useable disk space, however actual useable space is 5.46TiB.
So, the question is where did the disk space go?
First off, I can say for certainty the disks actual useable is verified at 2TB each have mounted and formated on a non-linux system (OSX).
Disks - 2TB Per disk, Tested HFS, Actual 2TB Useable

I use Linux. I coded a screenshot program some time ago and now I have 9 GIG of screenshots, 60000 JPEGs, most of them look pretty similar, and I have 300 MB of disk space remaining.
What are some good ways to start to compress batches of them (or all of them) in the background given the limited space? The problem with compressing the folder all at once is that I wouldn't have enough disk space for that. It seems the process needs to be broken down into chunks. So maybe something like: Get a list of all the files Add a chunk of the files (say, 20) to a compressed archive. Once it is done and saved successfully, delete the chunk of files
