Huh

2022-04-25 18:40:02.483884+02 by Dan Lyke 2 comments

Huh. Wish I knew what chewed up ~35G of disk space and wasn't showing up on "du -h /" on my server. Cleaned up some logs, rebooted, and things are back to normal. But/and: I probably need to cut back on the resolution of pictures I upload for shitposts.

Consider this:

sudo lsof +aL1 /

That will show you all file nodes that are open but have no links left in a file system. On Debian, I'm getting the size and PID in the output as well.

Oooh! Next time it gets in that state I'll have to try that out. Thanks!

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
