Hi there, I have a frustrating issue.
I have three disks in my Ubuntu 8.04 home server configured as follows: > df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda2 7.8G 2.5G 5.1G 33% / /dev/sdc1 466G 436G 31G 94% /var/lib/backuppc_old /dev/mapper/backupvg-backuplv 531G 531G 20K 100% /var/lib/backuppc > mount /dev/sda2 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro) /dev/sdc1 on /var/lib/backuppc_old type reiserfs (rw) /dev/mapper/backupvg-backuplv on /var/lib/backuppc type xfs (rw) I am trying to copy all files from /var/lib/backuppc_old to /var/lib/backuppc. When I copy the files, the /var/lib/backuppc partition always fills up although it is 100GB bigger. I don't understand why. /var/lib/backuppc_old is resierfs 3.6.19 set at defaults when created. /var/lib/backuppc is an LVM partition and I have tried creating ext3, reiser3 and xfs on the logical volume - but they all fill up before the copy is complete. Can anyone explain what's going on? I've spent hours and hours and hours on this problem. Thanks, Mark. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.org/UKTeam/
