linux partion is not shoing the proper free disk space
Hi,
I got /home partation full 100% so i have deleted some folder around 5GB and when i give df -h it shows only 2.7GB free remaining space not able to find. I user CentOS operation system Please help me on this ...... |
One thing to check, if you deleted the files with a the GUI, they may not have been deleted, they may have only been moved to the "trash".

I concur

Hi Thanks for your update, i have deleted the files through putty.....by taking the machine through remote...
|
Another option, depending on the files you have deleted.
They may be being "held" by latent process.. Code:
lsof | grep 'deleted' Killing the process should free the space, allow df to report it correctly. (Im possibly not doing a good job of explaining this, but I had a similar problem some years ago, and fixed it this way) |
