I have an HPUX 11.31 system which is configured with hardware RAID 5 across 4x300GB drives. I allocated all but 100GB of space when building the system, but put only 20GB into /usr. Today, I'm told that an application owner needs more space on /usr.
There's 100GB of unallocated disk space and I've run into issues trying to unmount /usr because processes are running.
How to mount compressed disk image?
Here is my situation: I have hard drive with (fresh) OS installation. I made compressed image of that disk to another disk.
How to make compressed disk image to file (on another disk):
sudo cat /dev/sdb | gzip > disk.img.gz (sdb is source)
If free space is zero-ed, compression is much better.
Our present OpenBSD server needed more disk space, so we replaced the 13 GB disk (it's pretty old too) with 150GB. An image was made and then restored on the new disk. So far, so good.
The new disk has a 13GB OpenBSD partition, it boots and works as before.
Next order of business: use the other 135 GB.
Hi, Horde is a mystery with its disk space consumption...or is it something else?
The 'disk space usage' panel shows 45.74 mg being used by mail; when i click on 'mail' on the 'disk space usage' panel, the the in, out, send, trash boxes for all mail id's have far less than the amount of disk space usage noted on the above mentioned panel.
We use a StarWind SAN which has the concept of thin-provisioned disks that grow as needed. You can allocate a 4TB drive but it starts off tiny and grows as blocks are written to the virtual disk (via iSCSI).
The virtual disk used for our main file system has grown to 1.5TB and has plenty of virtual space left (2.5TB) but disk space on the SAN is another matter - it's getting a bit tight.
You will find here how to discover which directory or file is using your disk space, and therefore where makes more sence to start erasing files.
I see the following error while trying run the command shown below. I read somewhere that my /boot partition is low on disk space. How can I increase the size of the /boot partition so I can install more software?
I have started using a machine that has both Debian and Windows 7 installed. However, after installing some programs I started getting a message that there is not enough space. I knew that the system had more than 1TB of hard disk space in total and did some research.
I have a 500 GB LVM2 container on a 500 GB HDD which holds a 96 GB root partition (ext4) and a 4 GB swap partition.
