    Managing disk space

    I apologize for the beginner question, but I am new to Linux.
    I have a server that has two 1TB hard drives set up in a RAID 1 configuration.
    When I run df, the total size listed (used and unused) only adds up to about 28GB. How do I make the rest of the disk space available for use?
    I am running Red Hat Enterprise 5.2.
    Thanks.

    fdisk -l will show you the partitions on the disk and how they are configured. If you have partitions that are not mounted, you will be able to tell that, and if there is free space on the disk (not assigned to a partition) you will be able to tell that as well. You will need to create new partitions or mount the unmounted ones.
