Linux Question
my root partition is growing fast and no file seems to be increasing in size
In my centos 6 server, it's been a while that I am deleting logs and not required files to avoid my root partition become full,
nothing seems to be that large to fill it,
this is my df output:
[root@server002 lib]# df -hT
Filesystem Type Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/vg_server-lv_root
ext4 115G 105G 4.6G 96% /
tmpfs tmpfs 7.8G 0 7.8G 0% /dev/shm
/dev/sda1 ext4 485M 74M 386M 17% /boot
/dev/mapper/vg_server-lv_home
ext4 145G 77G 61G 56% /home
and this is another command:
[root@server002 /]# ls | xargs du -sh

64M boot
180K dev
27M etc
77G home

as you can see df shows my root has 105G used spase but nothing in du output is using that amount of space.
can someone tell me what i am missing to check?
tnx
Edited:
I also added -A to ls command to show hidden files and this is the output:
[root@server002 temp]# cd /
[root@server002 /]# ls -A | xargs du -sh
