looks like /var/snd is full, imagine that.....

It's not the largest drive, and I had planned to replace it, but didn't 
think they'd fill it up that fast (last time I checked it was around 50% 
free). The thing that gets me is, RD was happy to import files and rip 
cd's as is everything was fine........Shouldn't  it throw an error to 
the user saying hey my drive is full? If I hadn't noticed a message in 
an open terminal saying I had mail in some directory I would have not 
noticed for a lot longer.

So they still need to add a bunch of Christmas music that is supposed to 
start playing Friday. I have bigger disks, but it will take some time to 
backup the current /var/snd. The /var/snd directory is on a dell server, 
one partition on a raid 5 array. the other 2 partitions, /home, and /, 
have 38Gb of free space between them, but I guess there is no way 
todynamically alter the partitions while in use, and get some of that 
free space to /var/snd so they can keep working while I bring up the 
backup server with larger drives that I had been planning to implement 
but never got around to yet? or Can I swap the drives in the RAID 5 one 
at a time with the larger drives and let the array rebuild? I've never 
done any of that but it is possible yes? and stay on the air? really if 
we have to play cd's no big deal.

Thanks,
NS
