Ed, Thanks.. We tried to delete as much as possible but still the database is occupying max space on the volume. Can we move mysql data files to a different volume and ask the endine to pick the data files from there. If so I need some more help on how to do that. -----Original Message----- From: Ed Wilts [mailto:ewilts@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, February 20, 2004 1:37 PM To: redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Disk Full Problem....

Do you have another disk you can move the database to? It's not that hard to tell MySQL to use a database from another disk. The default is /var/lib/mysql/ In an emergency basis, you might be able to clean up some space in some of your other large directories. For example, clean up /var/log and /var/spool/up2date (the rpm and hdr files can be safely deleted - you can always download them again if you need to). -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:ewilts@xxxxxxxxxx Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list =========================================================================== This electronic transmission contains confidential information intended only for the person(s) named.
