What I think you really should do is change the fstab entries to.... 192.168.1.8:/home /mnt/HOME1 nfs4 defaults,rw,user 0 0 192.168.1.8:/data /mnt/DATA1 nfs4 defaults,rw,user 0 0 > > It looks like what I need to do is remove the present nfs > configuration and start from the /home directory?

First of all /nfs4exports doesn't take up any space. They are bind mounts which is analogous to symbolic links. I'll illustrate using my nfs server. [egreshko@misty ~]$ df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/icy3-root 16G 11G 4.3G 71% / /dev/sda1 388M 47M 321M 13% /boot /dev/mapper/icy5-opt 9.7G 5.6G 3.6G 62% /opt /dev/mapper/icy5-syntegra 77G 41G 33G 55% /syntegra /dev/mapper/icy3-VMware 308G 231G 62G 79% /opt/VMware /dev/mapper/icy5-home 581G 323G 229G 59% /home [egreshko@misty ~]$ exportfs -v /nfs4exports/syntegra 192.168.0.0/24(rw,wdelay,nohide,insecure,root_squash,no_subtree_check) /nfs4exports/myhome 192.168.0.0/24(rw,wdelay,nohide,insecure,root_squash,no_subtree_check) /nfs4exports 192.168.0.0/24(ro,wdelay,insecure,root_squash,no_subtree_check,fsid=0) And my /etc/fstab contains the following.... /syntegra /nfs4exports/syntegra none rw,bind 0 0 /home/egreshko /nfs4exports/myhome none rw,bind 0 0 So, you can see that the /syntegra partition uses 41GB and /home uses 323GB. None of that space is reflected on the / partition which has only 16GB allocated and 11GB used. If you combine that with /opt only 17GB is being used by the OS. On the other hand, you have allocated 50GB to / and have used 49GB while /home is way under-utilized. I suspect you have non-OS data on the / partition which can be moved to /home. I would first start out by identifying what directory structure on / is using so much space. For example, you may have a /data directory that you've added which could be moved to /home. -- Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots.
