[ilugd] Changing partition size without formatting
Hey Guys, I installed postgres in our linux server. I didn't see the partion size of /usr. It is just 7 GB and rest 73 GB is spare in /var. How can I give a part of /var to /usr without formatting both of them? Thanks and Regards, Cheers! «·´`·.(*·.¸(`·.¸ ¸.·´)¸.·*).·´`·» «.[ Garry ].» «·´`·.(¸.·*(¸.·´ `·.¸)*·.¸).·´`·» Check for free gifts (at your own risk): http://www.tech4free.com/default.aspx?ref=33328 ___ ilugd mailinglist -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/

If PgSQL is going to be your main application, leave /var with the huge disk space. 7GB for /usr is fine, since /usr doesn't grow significantly after installation and setup; /var, however, holds the databases and is likely to expand with time.

If that is the case, I shouldn't have got such an error :o( [Error] File C:\installs\PYTHON23\lib\site-packages\pyPgSQL\PgSQL.py, line 3072, in execute libpq.OperationalError: ERROR: cannot extend [Table Name]: No space left on device. Check free disk space. [/Error] And as soon as I got that, the first command I issued was: [EMAIL PROTECTED] var]# df -kh FilesystemSize Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/hda7 4.9G 301M 4.3G 7% / /dev/hda1 4.9G 52M 4.6G 2% /boot /dev/hda3 9.7G 178M 9.0G 2% /home /dev/hda2 42G 532M 39G 2% /opt none 999M 0 999M 0% /dev/shm /dev/hda6 5.8G 5.5G 63M 99% /usr /dev/hdc1 73G 543M 69G 1% /var The installation was done as per the guidelines given by postgres documents and no tweak/manipulations were done. Please suggest me if I am wrong or have done a mistake and how can I rectify that.
