root FS full

Hi,

I have a HP-UX 11.0 box with root file system 150MB.
Today I see it is 98% full and I can't find nothing wrong. All FS are mounted, no large files found using "du".

Help!

Re: root FS full

maybe there is an open file handle in this fs. if you delete a file and do not close it, the space is still in use and you will not find any big files.
use "lsof" to find any open files in the system
never touch a running system :-)

Re: root FS full

In addition to the above answers, you might have a file hidden under a FS mount.

When a FS is mounted it will hide all of the files that are currently located at the mount point
