There are various things you can do :
Show in ascending order of size all the directories in / : # du -x / | sort -n
Show all files in / over a meg in size: # find / -xdev -size +1024k
Show all the files in / that have been modified within the last 10 minutes: # find / -xdev -mmin -10
This last one is useful when looking for log files which tend to be the space hoggers and change frequently.
Also, check /var if it's in your / filesystem. This tends to be where the space is gobbled up.
For more information : man du man find man df

Hi All,
I am having problems with few filesystems (partions). Following partiotions are 85 to 99 % full. I cannot expand the partition or add space to it:
/ 99% full /boot 85% full /usr 90 % full
I don't know where to look and what to delete. Can I reduce other partitions and increase the size of above partiotion. Any help..
Thanks
vivek
