Logwatch Disk Space Usage is Wrong/Stale

linux-howto

http://serverfault.com – 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 198G 185G 2.8G 99% /var /dev/cciss/c0d0p1 99M 24M 70M 26% /boot If I log into the server and run df -h manually I get the following result: Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% (HowTos)

Having issues with space accounting of lvm volume. 23G is available. But the full size of the partition is 20G.

Hi I need to Extend the LVM on one Server

And this is the df -h result

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on

/dev/cciss/c0d0p2 58G 26G 29G 48% /

/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00

476G 86G 366G 19% /u001/app/oracle

/dev/cciss/c0d0p1 487M 17M 445M 4% /boot

tmpfs 16G 730M 16G 5% /dev/shm

And I need to Extend /

I have an Ubuntu server.my Mysql service stopped and it did not start. I found out that my free disk space is very low.

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/cciss/c0d0p1 32G 31G 0 100% / none 497M 312K 497M 1% /dev none 501M 0 501M 0% /dev/shm none 501M 252K 501M 1% /var/run none 5

On one of our server Hardware RAID1(mirroring) is configured. Now we need to break the RAID1 and simply use the other Hard disk separated from RAID to extend the LVM on that server.

Can some one tell me what will be outcome of this action. Because I have not done this before although this is test server but still I want to be careful.

If needed extra information I will add to Question.

I recently downloaded something on my Redhat Linux computer, and it told me I was out of space. I checked my disk usage, and it says I've used 100% of my folder, but as you can see I still have almost 900Gb available.

I cannot figure out the mapping between different logical and physical block device names. The output of "cat /proc/diskstats" is :

104 0 cciss/c0d0 ... 104 1 cciss/c0d0p1 ... 104 2 cciss/c0d0p2 ... 104 16 cciss/c0d1 ... 253 0 dm-0 ... 253 1 dm-1 ... 253 2 dm-2 ... 253 3 dm-3 ...

The output of "df -h" is :

/dev/cciss/c0d0p1 99M 39M 56M 42% /

I have a box with fedora7 and would like to install f11 as a dual boot. At some time in the future I would change f7 for fxx whatever the then current version is. F7 is currently installed using LVM, see df output:

Centos, I have already expanded Virtual disk in Vmware, now i need to add additional space to LVM Group but most tutorials out there are saying to create new partition and add it to LVM. Since there is a limit four partitions i can't do that way.

How i would do it in this situation ?

Hi, re:

The recommended approach to building an LFS system is to use an available empty partition or, if you have enough unpartitioned space, to create one.

A minimal system requires a partition of around 1.3 gigabytes

On my fedora 10 os, if I do df -h, I get the following:
