Ubuntu :: Allocating Free Space To Existing Harddrive Went Wrong?
May 28, 2011
I tried using livecd 104 to allocate some free space to the harddrive that contains the files and the os 104
here is the gparted output:

[URl]also I wonder why there is such a gap between the size of the files (7 GB) and their size on the disc (44 GB)

So... I run df -h and I get this:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/root 293G 21G 258G 8% /
tmpfs 503M 0 503M 0% /dev/shm
/dev/hdd1 113G 12G 96G 11% /win1
/dev/hdc1 113G 109G 0 100% /win0
It's close to full, but not actually full. I can't run a lot of things on this drive because the programs complain that they have no space.

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 installed oracle enterprise linux on VM ware with 20 gb allocated to guest OS. Now I want to install oracle apps in the guest Os, so I need to extend the volume. I have extended in Vm , but I have to partition in the guest OS, for that purpose I am using Gparted. But I am unable to extend to sda1. I need to have all the unallocation space allocated to sda1. Here is the screen shot, how can I do that. Right now when in press the command df -h in terminal I am gettig 18 gb as space available for sda1, I want to make it 200 gb, in which I would like to install oracle apps. Check out my screen shot.

I've got a question on free disk space. I'm currently running CentOS 5.5 on in Xenserver virtual environment. We've had an issue with disk space. My question is as follows: - from a ssh connection i run df -h this gives the value of 90% used leaving me with 9GB. If I use system monitor via a VNC connection the free disk space value is 20GB free on the same volume. Which one is correct? I do use SNMP to monitor the same volume and should alert me when < 10% is free I know this works as I set the alert threshold to < 90% I get an alert.

I have red hat linux server and it has mysql installed whenever i write on terminal command mysql -u root it shows error "ERROR 2002 (HY000): can't connect to local MYSQL server through '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock (111) "
And another problem is that it is showing 0 byte free space istaed of freeing the space. it may seems that both problems are dependent on each other.

i signed up for an online storage website because i want to clear up some harddrive space. the way they upload is java based and whenever i get to the upload page i get the message at the top of the screen that says "additional plugins are required to display all the media on this page." when i click on "install missing plugins" it tells me "no suitable plugins were found." obviously i need to manually install something, what should i install? i cant always understand the descriptions in synaptic.

I just tried to download a torrent and got an error message indicating there was no space left in the download location I'd specified.
This happened earlier when df -h showed ~900M of free space. Just now, I'm showing ~2.2G of free space. Anyone have ideas what could be causing this?

I am a complete noob using Ubuntu 9.10 for the past 6 months. I have a dual boot system i.e windows XP and Ubuntu 9.10. I never had any issue until I started getting the following warning message whenever I try to install updates from update manager. I can't even download other stuff from internet.
Not enough free disk space
The upgrade needs a total of 173M free space on disk '/'. Please free at least an additional 63.1M of disk space on '/'. Empty your trash and remove temporary packages of former installations using 'sudo apt-get clean'. Emptying trash and using sudo apt-get clean did not help.

according to the system manager of my machine, one of my ext4 partitions (home folder) reads 7.6GB free but only 574MB available and the disks "fills" when the 574MB are used, and i'm really needing those 7G right now, so:
why does this happen? are those 7G used in anything? any way to allow the system use that free space?

the method for freeing up space by deleting old kernels is made to sound very simple: go into Synaptic, select the outdated kernels, mark for complete removal, and Apply. Easy. But . . . when I mark a particular kernel for removal, Synaptic also wants to remove a lot of other things, some of which do not bear version numbers and seem generic. I am, to put it mildly, very leery of just telling it to go ahead, lest I end up losing things I should have kept and having a dead or at least crippled box.
Say, for example, that I mark for Complete Removal the line linux-image-2.6.22-15-generic; when I go to Apply that one deletion, I get a laundry list of to-die files that includes:
linux-generic
linux-image-generic
linux-restricted-modules-generic
linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24-27-generic
linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-27-generic
linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-15-generic
linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.22-15-generic,........
