The file system /dev/vzfs, which is mounted at /, has reached critical status because it is 97% full

oh, maybe the "done" was incorrect. Try just rm -fv /home/$user/backup-*$user.tar.gz;

No, No joy with that one.

Run it where ever,

the du -a / will scan it from root for you.

Hi Slavik, This is what the command came back with

du: cannot access `/proc/14108/task/14108/fdinfo/4': No such file or directory

Any reason why you still need that? I'm assuming it's a backup of public_html. If you do require it still, I'd archive it into a gunzipped archive and then remove the folder.

Hi Mike,

No reason for me to have it, didnt even know it was there to be honest! What command would I use to remove it?

rm /home/airportc/public_html-org

Would that do it?

rm -rf /home/airportc/public_html-org

rm -rf /home/airportc/public_html-org

Thanks Mike.

Down to 68% now which is much better then 97%!

Still very high though considering what little space im using!

maybe your /tmp..

Could try rm -rf /tmp/*
then to avoid site errors after completed restart apache and mysql
service httpd restart
service mysql restart

Do you reckon it safe to remove all tmp files?

Yeap, they are only tmp files Just be sure to restart the two services I stated to avoid browser errors from users with active connections at time of removal as it will delete their connection token.

Hi Slavik, This is what the command came back with

Expand the list out further if you want, change the 10 to 20, 30, 40, etc it will keep recursing down as far as you tell it to and find the largest files and folders.

/dev/vzfs is a Virtuozzo File System partition. VZFS is a file system that allows to share common files among multiple VPS Hosts, contact your host. Also, if you want to see if you have anything that takes space, use:

# du -ksh /*
6.4M    /bin
44M     /boot
4.0K    /cgroup
216K    /dev
24M     /etc
5.7M    /home
232M    /lib
28M     /lib64
16K     /lost+found
4.0K    /media
4.0K    /mnt
20K     /opt
0       /proc
92K     /root
11M     /sbin
0       /selinux
4.0K    /srv
0       /sys
24K     /tmp
622M    /usr
1.9G    /var

And drill it down, for example:

# du -ksh /var/www/*
242M    /var/www/axivo.com
36K     /var/www/html
8.0K    /var/www/icons

You are NOT supposed to delete things as you see fit, unless you KNOW EXACTLY what you delete.

Thanks for your help everyone. Checked this morning and im down to 30%.

Only one huge issue now, is that none of my email accounts that are hosted on the server are working! - Either through my PC or my phone.

Would any of the changes/deletions in this thread have caused them to stop working? Ive checked all the settings in Outlook and nothing there has changed.

 

[DaveL]

Looks like ive solved it! Just needed to restart the mail server
