Re: [cobalt-developers] Error Message from Server



Hello Paul,

You are correct, I have space available in the /home dir.
[root /root]# df -m
Filesystem         MB-blocks    Used Available Capacity Mounted on
/dev/hda1                484     386       98     80%   /
/dev/hda3                193      12      181      6%   /var
/dev/hda4               3173     709     2464     22%   /home

Now can you suggest me what should I do to reduce the capacity? As in /tmp
folder there is no big files are occupieing any space.
[root /root]# ls -al /tmp
total 31
drwxrwxrwt   2 root     root         1024 Jul 31 01:12 .
drwxr-xr-x  17 root     root         1024 Feb 25 14:38 ..
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root        28063 Jul 29 08:50 backup.1897.filelist

Your help shall be highly appreciated.
