Hi Thanks everyone for your replies. Here's the relevant output. Is there some tests I can run to see what is going on? df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/cciss/c0d0p3 3.0G 1.9G 967M 67% / /dev/cciss/c0d0p1 147M 15M 125M 11% /boot /dev/cciss/c0d0p7 59G 53G 3.3G 95% /opt none 1007M 0 1007M 0% /dev/shm /dev/cciss/c0d0p2 3.0G 2.5G 358M 88% /var du -hs /opt/ 27G /opt Hope this helps Dan
