Hi All,
I just recently started getting file system full messages
when the actual file system is not full.
We are running DU3.0b on a DEC3000/300. UNAME is:
        OSF1 qmp2 V3.0 358.78 alpha
The result of the 'df -k' command is:
qmp2{root}25: df -k
Filesystem  1024-blocks        Used       Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/rz0a         63231       32282       24625    57%    /

The result of 'du -k /home' command is:
.

3985    /home/transfer
90827   /home
I searched through the '/home/ directory and could not
find any huge file been generated. So I believe the
kernal is having problems or has a bug.
The disk this occurs on is given by:
qmp2{root}6: scu -f /dev/rrz6c

This disk has recently been installed on the system and
a new kernal compiled. The problem only started occuring
when a user started running a particular script which
generates files for a plotting application which resides
in the '/home' partition. In all, this does not by any
means generate 1gig of temp data.
Has anybody else seen this problem and know of a fix ??
