I ran into a curious problem today: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/sda3 684172708 652718132 0 100% /mnt/sda3 While there should be 30GB available it shows that its full. The partition is my /-partation and party of my linux (2.6.24.19) thinks that this partition is really full. Syslogd/Klogd are not working and /tmp is mounted as overflow-Ramdisk on boot. I did a forced fsck twice by now, and I booted into a brand new 2.6.28-11-kernel and ext2-tools version 1.41.4 and the same problem. Whats going on here? Anything left I can to debug or solve this problem? Next step is to backup all data on the disk, reformat the partition and restore the files, but actually this is not what I like to do on a regular base :) fdisk does not complain about any harddisk/partition-troubles : # fdisk -l /dev/sda Disk /dev/sda: 750.1 GB, 750156374016 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 91201 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Disk identifier: 0x00083824 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 1 4863 39062016 83 Linux /dev/sda2 4864 5349 3903795 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/sda3 5350 91201 689606190 83 Linux and there is a second ext3-partition on the same disk (sda1) which doesnt have any similar problem. Would removing and adding the journal help? (I did this once but I cant remember why and especially how I did it) Any help greatly appretiated, I add the result of tune2fs -l /dev/sda3 at the end of this posting. Maybe it helps. thnx a lot, peter # tune2fs -l /dev/sda3 tune2fs 1.41.4 (27-Jan-2009) Filesystem volume name: <none> Last mounted on: <not available> Filesystem UUID: 3098e1e4-e120-469e-9e7b-41c2bb730b8f Filesystem magic number: 0xEF53 Filesystem revision #: 1 (dynamic) Filesystem features: has_journal ext_attr resize_inode dir_index filetype needs_recovery sparse_super large_file Filesystem flags: signed_directory_hash Default mount options: (none) Filesystem state: clean Errors behavior: Continue Filesystem OS type: Linux Inode count: 43106304 Block count: 172401547 Reserved block count: 8620077 Free blocks: 7863644 Free inodes: 40182634 First block: 0 Block size: 4096 Fragment size: 4096 Reserved GDT blocks: 982 Blocks per group: 32768 Fragments per group: 32768 Inodes per group: 8192 Inode blocks per group: 256 Filesystem created: Wed Jun 18 10:19:42 2008 Last mount time: Fri Apr 3 12:21:20 2009 Last write time: Fri Apr 3 12:21:20 2009 Mount count: 1 Maximum mount count: 34 Last checked: Fri Apr 3 11:09:13 2009 Check interval: 15552000 (6 months) Next check after: Wed Sep 30 11:09:13 2009 Reserved blocks uid: 0 (user root) Reserved blocks gid: 0 (group root) First inode: 11 Inode size: 128 Journal inode: 8 Default directory hash: tea Directory Hash Seed: 3536ec11-ab59-45b4-a4a4-6f1a37901363 Journal backup: inode blocks _______________________________________________ Ext3-users mailing list Ext3-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/ext3-users
