| Issue |
There are only a fixed amount of files and programs running on a system, but there seems to be a lot of hard-drive space being taken up. There are not really any programs that write continuously to the hard-drive. |
| Solution |
It is most likely a grown file issue.
You can use 'ls -lx' or 'find -status grown'
to find files that are marked this way.
Sometimes, third-party software companies will implement an O_APPEND file-opening policy which may cause an increased disk-usage.
This problem can be fixed by mounting the filesystem with the '-g' flag, and doing a stat on the files (such as an 'ls').
