Hi to everybody. On my mailserver based on ISPConfig 3 I can see from the monitor section that sometimes my / partition is full for few minutes... then it'll come back normal again. This is the situation in a normal period: Code: /dev/sda1 ext3 950M 227M 675M 26% / tmpfs tmpfs 2.0G 0 2.0G 0% /lib/init/rw udev tmpfs 10M 612K 9.5M 6% /dev tmpfs tmpfs 2.0G 8.0K 2.0G 1% /dev/shm /dev/sda5 xfs 4.7G 815M 3.9G 18% /usr /dev/sda6 xfs 4.7G 1023M 3.7G 22% /var /dev/sda7 xfs 286G 2.2G 284G 1% /home none tmpfs 2.0G 74M 1.9G 4% /tmp /etc/glusterfs/glusterfs.vol fuse.glusterfs 137G 2.1G 135G 2% /var/vmail I guess there are some temporary file that the system is creating for a bit. There is a way to avoid this problem? When the / partition is full, are the emails working anyway? Thanks Michele
this one: Code: Filesystem Type Size Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/sda1 ext3 950M 227M 675M 26% / Sometimes for few minutes is been used 100%
The problem is that your / partition is very small; I guess the problem is caused by temporary files. I'd make the / partition at least 5GB.
Hi falko, thanks for the reply. My bad... I was running a backup script on the wrong partition... Thanks
