Ubuntu :: Bleachbit Very Incorrect With Disk Usage?
Jan 3, 2010
I realize bleachbit is supposed to "clean files", but my disk usage is at 11.8%. My disjk usage was at like 6.0%. How in the world did it jump so much? It doesnt appear to be right. The only thing I did not check were the Firefox checkboxes..
I've got this problem. Disk usage analyzer says I have a 70.3GB HDD which is correct. However it says that 55.7GB is used even though disk usage analyzer shows me that I have only 21.4GB filled up with data (filesystem). What is taking up all the space then?Could someone help me with this issue? I have tried to search the forums with no satisfying result.Here is the disk usage analyzer output:And here is the df output from terminal:
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/sda1 73742752 58371236 11625564 84% / udev 1026116 244 1025872 1% /dev
I was trying to get the status of memory usage and disk usage using sigar in windows and ubuntu. done this in windows by just copying the sigar library into jdk library. But i was unable to do so in ubuntu. I've copied the library to java-6-sun library but still can't run the program.
I'm running into a problem where my system is running out of disk space on the root partition, but I can't figure out where the runaway usage is. I've had a stable system for a couple of years now, and it just ran out of space. I cleaned some files up to get the system workable again, but can't find the big usage area, and I'm getting conflicting results.For example, when I do a df it says I'm using 44GB out of 58 GB:
Code: [root@Zion ~]# df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
Some thing is using up a huge amount of my disk space about 10G and I can not determine what it is. When I look at my disk usage in system monitor it say I have used about 25G and when I scan the directory in disk usage analyzer the entire file system used is 15G.
I just finished my computer build and have installed Ubuntu lucid as my sole OS. Everything seems to be going well except for the fact that when I do "df -h", the size of my 1TB hard drive is reported as being only 908GB. I could understand if it was off by a few gigs but 92? The result is the same with the graphical "Disk Usage Analyzer." However, Under System>Administration>Disk Utility the correct number is displayed.
I am using fedora 7 with 300G sata hdd. i have deleted 18G of 2 files. After deletion and after 12 hours, the filesystem size displayed by "df" was unchanged.
I have SELinux set to permissive and am getting lots of errors because the contexts are incorrect after a filesystem relabel. e.g.
Code:
[root@fileserver2 var]# ls -alZ /data/serverlogs/messages -rw-------. root root system_u:object_r:default_t:s0 /data/serverlogs/messages
I believe that this file should be var_log_t.How can I restore the correct context to all of the files in /var/log?I've tried running:
Code:
restorecon -vR /var/log/
But this does not change the contexts, I guess because the files are now in the 'incorrect' location. I've looked through the file: /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts which I believe contains the original/default settings - maybe I need to alter this file to fix the problem? I've also tried modifying /data/serverlogs using:
Code:
semanage fcontext -a -t var_log_t /data/serverlogs
which fixes the directory itself, but not the contents,
I have benn using ubuntu on an old laptop to run a samba server and a torrent server and it has been working fine till a few days ago when it stopped letting me write any files to the disk, So i tried deleting some of the files i no longer needed to free up some space and the disk usage didnt decrease so i checked it out using the disk usage analyzer and it says its full but i know for sure its not.
How can i limit disk space usage for one user? Like.. User john123, you can only use 100mb of my harddisk. User jake155, you can only use 250mb of my harddisk.
I want to get the disk space usage of each user on the machine. I Have found the command -du but how can I consultate the usage per user? The only thing I can is to consultate the usage of maps...
well I went to wubi-installer, and installed Ubuntu, and I love it, I don't want to go back to windows 7, but anyways, I set Ubuntu to my D: Drive, (200GB Space) and I installed Steam (Steampowered.com) to get my games on Ubuntu. I installed all of my games, but here is a big problem, I can't figure out how to use more than 30GB on Ubuntu, it just doesn't work. I got GParted, and the D: drive is set to 195 GB (200, but Ubuntu used 5GB)
I upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04 without any visible issues. But after a few days system started to behave strange - first it shows the message that gnome-power-manager is not correctly installed on login screen. The it wasn't able to log in even - so I found that problem might be that it shows not enough space on the root partition.This is really strange for me - I do not have any special data there.
See what I have after df command: /dev/sda2 9614148 8618864 506908 95% / none 1024128 360 1023768 1% /dev
I am running latest apache2 available in the lucid repos on my desktop. All packages are updated as of this moment. Now in the root of my web server I have placed several soft links that point to folders on another ext3/ntfs partitions on the same disk. When I try to download any large file (say above 500M)on this server using firefox, when the 'save' window appears, my desktop freezes, I notice very high cpu-ram-disk usage, even though I have not yet clicked on 'ok' to save the file. This issue is not present when the file size is small. Note that firefox and the webserver are running on the same computer.
Also I have tried nginx and lighttpd and the issue is present there as well. When I tried downloading the same files using Internet Explorer 6.0 using a XP VM the issue is not present. However on Windows as well using Firefox the issue recurs.
I've just installed ubuntu 10.04 and the message text that shows when you ssh in shows the disk usage of /home.How do I get it to show the disk usage of the entire root / instead? (like it used to on some older version of ubuntu)
I regularly use 'df -h' to check usage on each of my primary directories and mount points.
I'm currently somewhat confused by disk usage within my filesystem, so I'd like to do the following:
Display directory size of all, or say, the 10 largest, subdirectories to a specified directory. So, if I passed the root (/) directory, output would list the subdirectory of / with the largest disk usage first and its associated disk usage listed in human readable format (either M or G suffix as appropriate), followed by the subdirectory and usage for the second largest directory and so on.
Can anyone suggest a command or series of commands to do this?
I need to install Fedora on 4GB SDHC card, so the space is limited.My question is what files (documents, manuals, temporary files, logs, unused packages etc) I can remove, without harming the system?So far I cleaned /tmp, /var/log, trash what else?
The command time shows the time taken by a command to complete. Is there a command that shows the change in disk usage caused by a command? I would like to know how large a package is when I install it from source.
I am trying to get the total file size for certain files per directory.I am usingfind `pwd` /DirectoryPath -name '*.dta' -exec ls -l {} ; | awk '{ print $NF ": " $5 }' > /users/cergun/My Documents/dtafiles.txtbut this lists all the files in the directoriesI need the total per directory for all dta files.
I am trying to get my head around my new server. I am using CENTOS 5.4 x86_64 with 300GB harddrive.
The 300 GB been partitioned with the following:
Device Size Used Available Percent Used Mount Point /dev/md0 99M 18M 77M 19% /boot /dev/md1 16G 8.7G 5.8G 61% / /dev/md2 246G 40G 194G 18% /home /dev/md3 4.8G 1.6G 3.0G 35% /var /usr/tmpDSK 3.9G 432M 3.3G 12% /tmp
I have increased teh tmpDSK as it was getting full very quickly. My question is, what are these md0; md1, md2 and md3 are they harddrive partitions and as md1 is getting full will that have an impact on my sites.
how to check which process consuming a lot of HDD I/O ? Do You know any good command which can show me which process saving something big on the storage system ? "iostat" or maybe "ps" ? Would be great if somebody could past me here nice command.
I have a productive sever (very old, 1500 days without restart or software update, gentoo distro) and i have a weird disk usage there:
Code: gentoo / # du -sk *|sort -n 0 sys 2 service 6 mnt
[Code]....
You see that on 'df' i have 67 GB on the disk and 2.6GB avaiable, but du is confirming only 33GB of usage. What uses the other 34GB ? I can't install fancy graphical disk usage programs there, is there any way I can find what is consuming the 34GB of disk using command line tools and standard linux programs? (like debugfs or something like that)
The Disk Usage Analuser application in GNOME (baobab) only displays directories, not files. I think this is a huge deficiency that greatly reduces it's usefulness. Can anyone recommend an application (preferably GNOME/GTK) that's capable of providing a graphical break down of disk usage for the contents of a user's home directory with both directories and files sorted by the amount of space they take up? Like ncdu but with a GUI.
I am running Ubuntu 8.04LTS x64 on a Dell Poweredge 1900 with a Perc 5i RAID Controller. There are 3 500Gb SAS drives in a RAID 5 configuration. The Kernel is Linux dtpfs 2.6.24-27-server #1 SMP Wed Jan 27 23:39:33 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux Approximately once every 1 - 2 months I have a problem where the disk usage starts to rise for no apparent reason. When I run df the usage grows steadily over 2-3 days from 26% to 100%. At this point Samba reports that the disks are full. Baobab does not report the additional usage and the tape backup ignores the 'extra' usage and just backs up what was previously there. When I reboot the machine the usage is set back to normal and we can continue.
