Mike, Do a 'df' command and post the results to the cobalt-users list. Not sure if you mean the / partition or the /var partition?
Mysql is generally in /home/mysql no? So that would be part of the /home partition and would not be part of the disk usage problem you describe. If its the /var partition that gives you the 93% perhaps its the log dir? Once you do a 'df' and you know what partition is in fact chewing up space, in shell, cd into that dir and run 'du' this will give you a list of all files and their size recursively, and a total in MB. If you find something large, or silly, like huge log files, or other files, you can move it to the /home partition and setup a symlink. Ie.. mv /var/log/ /home/log/ ln -s /home/log /var/log If you do a ls -al you'll see the symlink. lrwxrwxr-x 1 root root 14 Aug 13 13:33 log -> /home/log You can then do another 'df' check and the percentage should be reduced.. Others may agree/disagree with this method, but it has worked for me. Cheers, -- Zeke P.S generally you would post this type of question to the cobalt-users list and not the cobalt-developers list. As the users list is for assistance with troubleshooting issues, and the developers list is more for discussions relating to software development / programming etc.. Etc..
