I'm posting this to -questions and -stable, since I'm not sure if it is
a problem or if I'm simply overlooking something.
(If someone knows how to get a Siemens phone to dump the whole
addressbook/calendar/whatever via Bluetooth to a SINGLE file, please let
me know.)
Anyway, I have the following directory:
root at hellion# ls ~/S56/vcs/20060504/

root at hellion# du ~/S56/vcs/20060504/
112K /root/S56/vcs/20060504/
112K total
And:
root at hellion# df
Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity Mounted on
/dev/ad0s1a 989M 766M 144M 84% /
devfs 1.0K 1.0K 0B 100% /dev

/dev/ad0s1d 54G 14G 35G 29% /usr

/dev/da0s2 19G 1.7G 17G 9% /back02

total 152G 62G 81G 44%
Anyway, I want to import all those .vcs files into Evolution, but since
there's no bulk import feature and I'm too lazy to do it by hand, I do
the following:
root at hellion# cat S56/vcs/20060504/*.vcs >> S56/vcs/20060504/cal.vcs
/: write failed, filesystem is full
cat: stdout: No space left on device
So:
root at hellion# df
Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity Mounted on
/dev/ad0s1a 989M 967M -57M 106% /
devfs 1.0K 1.0K 0B 100% /dev
/dev/ad1s1e 248M 25M 203M 11% /tmp
/dev/ad0s1d 54G 14G 35G 29% /usr
/dev/ad1s1f 54G 40G 8.9G 82% /usr2
/dev/ad1s1d 739M 305M 375M 45% /var
linprocfs 4.0K 4.0K 0B
100% /usr/compat/linux/proc
/dev/da0s1 19G 1.3G 18G 7% /back01
/dev/da0s2 19G 1.7G 17G 9% /back02
blackout:/usr/backup 5.0G 3.7G 906M 81% /blackout
total 152G 63G 81G 44%
And:
root at hellion# du S56/vcs/20060504/cal.vcs
201M S56/vcs/20060504/cal.vcs
201M total
Just to check:
root at hellion# cat ~/S56/vcs/20060504/*.vcs >> /usr/cal.vcs
root at hellion# du /usr/cal.vcs
46K /usr/cal.vcs
46K total
No matter how much space is left on /, the file will always grow until
it reaches 106% capacity. I know UFS reserves space, that's not my
problem, the problem is why that cat is doing this in the first place?
Just in case, I'm running:
root at hellion# uname -a
FreeBSD hellion.clcw 6.1-RC FreeBSD 6.1-RC #0: Sun Apr 16 12:09:39 BOT
2006 root at hellion.clcw:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/20051212 i386
