Cleaning out rootfs and VolGroup-lv_root
Hi,
Hoping someone can help me out a bit. I'm new to linux and am using the OS to run DNA sequence assembly software. After an overnight run I noticed that the program failed due to insufficient memory. A little internet reading and command prompt toying led me to this:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
rootfs 50G 48G 0 100% /
devtmpfs 20G 0 20G 0% /dev
tmpfs 20G 8.0K 20G 1% /dev/shm
/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_root 50G 48G 0 100% /
tmpfs 20G 49M 20G 1% /run
tmpfs 20G 0 20G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup
tmpfs 20G 0 20G 0% /media
/dev/sdb3 497M 96M 377M 21% /boot
/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_home 344G 36G 291G 12% /home
I did see another thread about this type of a problem but the responses seemed focused on finding the cause. In this case, I'm aware of the cause (Trinity RNA-Seq software max memory not set) but cannot figure out how to clear rootfs and VolGroup-lv_root.
Thanks in advance
