Re: Help.... SOS!!!

If you can't login, you can try to login at the console. If that doesn't work you can try to delete stuff with ftp, assuming root can ftp to the box I have done this in the past. Of course with ftp its a bit hard to find large files ;p

Of course if you are using /dev/root, then you need to reboot anyway as stated as you are in LVM maintenance mode.

Re: Help.... SOS!!!

Thank you I have done that and now the server is in single usr mode. Due to the reason no one is able to log into the server outside of the console. I need to enable it so user can access the HPUX server outside of the console. Can someone help me with that.

Re: Help.... SOS!!!



By definition only one useer can log in in single user mode. Networking is disabled, and only basic functionality is available

While you are logged in, look in /, and /dev for files that should not be there

you can do this with the ls -l command

you can also look for large files with the find command

find / -size +

to find suspect large files

to find large files that could be causing your problem
