Hi managers,
I have freshly installed a Tru64 4.0F box, with patchkit 7.
It was left running overnight to find the next morning that the
/usr/users filesystem (a 5GB UFS partition) was full.
Indeed 'df -k' showed capacity at 101% .
The messages log contained a disk full message and a lot of
"message repeated" messages with huge repetition counts.
I logged in and did a 'du -sk' on /usr/users, and it showed
me that approx 1.6GB was used - around 33 %).
Into single user, and forced a fsck of the partition. All clean.
Rebooted to multiuser - now 'df -k' shows a more "correct" figure of about
36% usage.
The machine has been running since and the problem has not recurred, but I have never experienced this before.
I've seen others in this group have problems, but they all seem to have been on AdvFS.
Any ideas what could cause this?
Kind regards,
Michael Bütow
