Hello
I am new member and noob about sysadmin
I have one file server have HDD 2TB and install Directadmin
When I try command "df -h"
[root@server ~]# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sdb2 9.5G 9.0G 0 100% /
/dev/sdb5 1.8T 196M 1.7T 1% /sdb4
/dev/sda1 452G 199M 428G 1% /sda1
/dev/sdb1 487M 17M 445M 4% /boot
tmpfs 3.9G 0 3.9G 0% /dev/shm

I see /dev/sdb2 full because I uploaded some file, but when that partion full, data don't write to dev/sdb5 (free 1.7Tb)

I want to ask people, What do i need config, data can write to dev/sdb5 ?

Thanks
 
Hello,

What does Directadmin has to do with your full partition? If you can not write, then you should free some space. It's a root partition with temp directory ... and it seems it contains /var and /usr as well. So there is no other way to go.

If you need to upload some files to your server, you'd better to upload it to your bigger partitions.
 
If you want me to help and resolve the issue on your server, you should hire me, as I don't work for Directadmin. Feel free to send me a PM for a quote.
 
My understanding (someone correct me if I'm wrong) that there's no way to get around a full / partition other than to clear some space on it; since it holds the directory information for all the other partitions mounted on it, you won't be able to update those directories so you won't be able to write to the other partitions.

Quick question:

I'm only running directadmin on my server and the total size of my hosted domains is 35GB yet my root partition shows 170GB used. I routinely check the mail accounts that receive cron mailings and empty them as needed but where should I look for this other 135GB of data that is filling up my drive?
 
Using the df and du commands to find out where the most space is.
