/usr partition is full can you think of anything I can delete?

[dwhs]

Any sections that are not needed. I have centos 3.9 and I can't do any more symlinks.

Let's see the results of df -h (put it in code tags please). That will give a good look at your filesystem/partitioning scheme, and what you have available for resources.

Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda7             888M  562M  281M  67% /
/dev/sda1             198M   21M  168M  11% /boot
/dev/sda8             742M  589M  116M  84% /home

/dev/sda6             888M   17M  827M   2% /tmp
/dev/sda2             9.7G  8.6G  636M  94% /usr
/dev/sda3             2.9G  2.1G  679M  76% /var

It's almost all mysql as far as what's in the usr partition.

I wish I could see recursively which folders are the largest in the mysql section.

Thanks BTW

So, space is pretty tight on all filesystems.

Actually you can:
# cd /usr && du -ks * | sort -rn | less

Or traverse even lower for the starting point (e.g. /usr/mysql ?). A few iterations of that and you should be able to identify the largest offenders.

O.K. you get my vote for the next god, that's exactly what I was looking for! Thanks again.

[anomie]

I can't handle that level of responsibility.

Glad you got the info you needed.
