Fedora :: OS Drive Not Releases Freed Disk Space?
Oct 31, 2009I have been having mysterious problems with my comp recently and I think it might have to do with my OS not releasing filespace. Previously, my OS partition was full, then I deleted/moved some files, but now it says that still no space is available:
[root@cluster log]# df -h (simplified):
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1 7.9G 7.6G 0 100% /
/dev/md0 459G 110G 327G 26% /export
[root@cluster log]#
The OS being /dev/sda1 (I am 99% sure, didn't set it up originally) and is CentOS4. As you can see, I have only used 7.6GB, and I should have 300MB available. Only thing I can think of is that when it was full, I moved matlab from there to the /export drive and added in a symbolic link to where it was on the OS drive so it would still work ok. Could this be why the space is not being freed up? We are in the process of installing a 16TB drive so we can free up some space or expand the partition, but somebody else here at work is handling that, so some other option that I could do would be best.

Jan 4, 2010Logical Memory Space of 4GB is divided in to 3GB User Space and 1GB Kernel Space. Always. Correct?
1. How can we change it? (just changing value of PAGE_OFFSET is okay?)
2. If system have only 256MB of memory (embedded system) and suppose Kernel Modules eat away all the memory during boot. User space will be left will no memory. Is this case possible?

Jul 28, 2011I've just managed to compress my LVs, extend my VG to my new SSD, move the LVs to the SSD and remove the old disk from the VG. All is well and good (mind you, I did kill my /home partition but it's sorted now...)
My next step was to shrink the PV (I think that's what I want to shrink?) so that I can add another partition to the SSD (to reduce compile times). See below for my current setup. I have a 35G PV with LVs totalling around 33G but the "partition" of the LVM is still 58G.

Ubuntu :: Systemtray: Blank Space / Icons Not Showing
May 24, 2011As can be seen in the title of this post, I'm not quite sure what's going on exactly, but my systemtray icons in Lubuntu 11.04 are not shown the way they should. There's blank space between them, the equivalent of 2 or 3 icons, and the blank space is 'created' while starting up, as though they are programs. See the attached screenshot to get an idea what I'm talking about.I'm really happy with Lubuntu, this is at the moment the only thing that's bugging me. It used to be 2 empty spaces in the systemtray, now it's 3.

Jun 5, 2009I'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.

Programming :: Core Dump - Right Memory Block To Be Freed
Nov 8, 2010In one of our core dump we have the followings in the core back trace:
#0 0xb77bf947 in raise () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6
#1 0xb77c10c9 in abort () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6
#2 0xb77f56ba in __fsetlocking () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6
#3 0xb77fcf7f in mallopt () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6
#4 0xb77fd022 in free () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6
It occurred in a memory block free operation. From our analysis, there seems no issue relate the the memory block it self. The memory pointer pointed to the right memory block to be freed and the contents of the memory seems right (not corrupted), in one world, there is nothing obviously wrong. Does any one have any ideas what could be wrong when seeing about?

Feb 24, 2010i just installed Fedora 12 (via vbox 3.1.4). stupidly i started with 8G and, of course, ran out of space on the / filesystem. i added 8G to the drive which now shows as 17G.based on the below outputs, it looks like i have 8G more space available on the drive. based on reading other posts it looks like i need to use parted to increase the size but not sure how to do that.

General :: Decompress A Tar File - Butrun Out Disk Space
Feb 7, 2011I'm running a virtual machine of CentOS 3 and I am trying to decompress a tar file, but I run out disk space. I created the VM with 80 GB of disk space. When I look at the partititions, (du command) I have /dev/sda2 with a partition of 70GB mounted on /home with < 1% used.
Here comes the n00b question: How do I use the 70GB of space on sda2? I thought working in the /home directory, where sda2 is mounted, would give me access to that disk space, but the tar files fill up the /boot partition.
General :: Keeping A Constant Space Between 2 Words In A File?
Oct 6, 2010I have a text file that gets produced at the end of the script being run.
For this example the text file will produce the following:
Quote:
THE COW
THE DOG
THE CAT
THE HORSE
In the script I am using either echo or printf to print on the screen each line and then it is doing a test and produces a good or bad result.
Another example:
Quote:
THE COW -- IS HOME
THE DOG -- IS HOME
Each whitespace between the -- are 5 spaces. How can I get them to be in-line and formatted when it gets to more words, when THE HORSE arrives.
Example:
Quote:
THE COW -- IS HOME
THE DOG -- IS HOME
THE CAT -- IS HOME
THE HORSE -- IS HOME <-- This has only 3 whitespaces but is still formatted.
General :: Possible To Bypass NFS File Permissions By Using A User-space NFS Client?
Jul 4, 2011There are some user-space based NFS clients (e.g. NFS Client library). Can I bypass file permissions by using such client? code...
Client1 uses usual NFS client (kernel-mode based) and user1@client1 can read only file1, but not file2.
As I understand, client1 sends uid in nfs request, server1 do a permissions check based on the request data. So, I suggest this is possible to have a client2:
Client2 uses user-space client, and hacker@client2 knows uids of user1 and user2; If he wants to read file1 he can send uid of user1; if he wants to read file2, he sends uid of user2.
Is the scheme possible?
General :: Find And Decrease File System Space For RAC Servers?
Dec 29, 2010We have recently built some RAC (OS:RHEL55) servers and after the Oracle guys have installed their application, somehow the directory / is using the maximum space. I contacted the Oracle team & they say that their RAC installation doesn't create any files in the / directory. This is the o/p of '/' directory file system:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/datavg-vol2 498M 382M 62M 88% /
Also, when I checked the file sizes, I found that the following files were taking more space:
/etc/selinux/targeted/modules/active/
-rw------ 1 root root 17M Nov1 base.linked
[code].....
I don't know what these files are doing there, when I did a cat and cheked, I found the files containing this data:
nf_tre--
stem_dbusd_var_run_t...and some stuff like this Unable to decide whether or not to remove these files. Also, is there any way to find out what files are taking more space and whether they can be deleted or not? in order to free up some space in the / direcoty. As there are 10 RACs that we've build, I got to do something to fix this for all of the 10 servers.
General :: Screen Not Showing On Laptop But Showing On Projector When Connected
Apr 18, 2011When I try to connect a projector to my laptop (already running) and hit the fn+f7 (the designated button for switching screen), nothing happens. I see "no source found" on projector screen and my laptop screen works perfectly. Now if I restart the laptop with the projector connected, I see all the intial booting messages on the projector screen (not on my laptop), then the gnome login screen appears on both the projector screen and laptop (when the login screen appears on laptop it looks like it has lower resolution than my usual laptop resolution). But immediately after I log in, my laptop screen goes blank, and projector screen becomes the only active screen.
If I restart without the projector, again all normal operation on laptop screen is restored.
I feel like I am missing some very silly options. Any help is appreciated.
Here is the output of xrandr when the laptop is connected:
