http://www.unix.com – Hi, We have a filesystem whose usage has gone above 81%, i tried to zip some files in the sub directories but the space is not released in the main file system. > df -h Filesystem size used avail capacity Mounted on /u01/app 5.8G 4.6G 1.2G 81% /u01/app /u01/app/oracle/exp 16G 582M 15G 4% /u01/app/oracle/exp Here we have FS /u01/app with size 5.8 GB and /u01/app/oracle/exp with size 16 GB. So if i delete or zip files in /u01/app/oracle/exp FS usage should reduce in /u01/app right. Please advice. (HowTos)

Hi,

We 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.

Hi, everybody! I have a big problem.

Need to change the mount Point 22 weeks 2 days ago

This is the situation.I installed the RHEL 5.5 on client's system and created LVM mount point at /u001/app/oracle and has the size of 450GB, and now he has installed DB on /u001/app/oracle. And now he is asking me to change the mount point of Existing LVM to /u001/.

And preserve the directories /app/oracle in /u001/.

Hi,

I am having a Low Disk error, saying my file system is low. I ran a Disk Usage Analazyer on the file system and it has pleaty of space in the primary directories. What is showing up in red is 2 of my three drive I have automatically mounting on boot. The mounted drives are 1 and 2 TB and are formatted to ntfs.

In order to do my homework from school, since two days ago, I installed Oracle 11g on my computer running Ubuntu.

While I was installing Oracle 11g, after setting the password for oracle and clicking "next", the installer said that there was not enough space for the home/oracle folder, so to make another space, I mounted another space after checking GParted and using Software device management,

I'm trying to enable Oracle-Managed Files on Oracle Express for Windows XP.

From everything I've read, I need to set db_create_file_dest to an existing directory in the file system.

I've tried setting db_create_file_dest=C:\somedir in init.ora.

FS Utilization Issue 47 weeks 1 day ago

Hi,

I have inherited a server that is experiencing a FS utilization issue.

The /home (below) is being utilized by the other mounted FS even though they belong to 2 different vg's.

Code: /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-home_vol 3.9G 3.7G 0 100% /home   /dev/mapper/vg01-lvol0 394G 306G 68G 82% /home/oracle/pcm/dbbkup With the exception of the /home/oracle directory all other sub-directories

I have a RHEL 4 server that recently ran out of disk space and now our Logwatch for the server reports the following disk usage (I think this is the last accurate night before the /var partition filled up):

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 62G 3.8G 55G 7% / /dev/mapper/VolGroup01-LogVol00 1
