I have a dedicated ubuntu server that hosts a rails web app. It has 2.9TB free in the home directory, which is where I host the app (for convenience sake). We host video so the home directory was filling up, so I deleted everything that was considered unnecessary.
However, now the home directory says it is 86% full, even though all that is on it is a web app of 10 GB.
These are the stats when I log in:
System load: 2.45 Processes: 170
Usage of /home: 81.2% of 2.70TB Users logged in: 1
Memory usage: 42% IP address for eth2: 178.33.225.53
Swap usage: 0%
This is what I get when I type "du -sm * | sort -nr" in the /home directory.
10369 sound
4 usera
1 lost+found
1 backup
And this is what I get when I type df:
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
rootfs 10403128 2034416 7844424 21% /
/dev/root 10403128 2034416 7844424 21% /
/dev 12363412 4 12363408 1% /dev

/dev/sda2 2895674360 2350270920 399469924 86% /home
I am not sure what to do so any help would be really really appreciated.
Thanks
