Re: root low space

Hi Robert;

Could you be so kind to provide - at your convenience - some detail on the commands needed, or give a link? I imagine that umount and mount are needed

I executed the following commands, retaining the output:

1) francesco@gig64:~$ df -h

2) root@gig64:/home/francesco# fdisk -l

3) root@gig64:/home/francesco# cat /etc/fstab

4) # touch /forcefsk followed by # shutdown -h now and by booting again, as I guess that the partitions should be clean. Has the created file /forcefsk to be removed to prevent disk checking at any reboot?

The system is warning about low space so that I can't delay a remedy. I do rarely disk maintenance, so that the little I know flies in part away between arepar and the next one.

Thanks a lot

francesco

Hi Francesco,

backup only the affected volumes (2 in your case, being vg1-root and vg1-home). A tool like partclone can be useful in your case, as it only backups used sectors, which reduces file size of the resulting backup image and also speeds up the whole process.

Just in case, make a backup first!
