How to increase disk space

ApostolisOct 21 2012 — edited Oct 23 2012
Hello,

I downloaded the Enterprise Java Development VM from the Pre-Built Developer VMs (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/community/developer-vm/index.html) which has the Oracle Linux 5 OS.

After some days of using it, on of the partitions does not have any free space. Here is the result of df -all -h:

[root@localhost oracle]# df -all -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00
6.7G 6.1G 228M 97% /
proc 0 0 0 - /proc
sysfs 0 0 0 - /sys
devpts 0 0 0 - /dev/pts
/dev/sda1 99M 12M 82M 13% /boot
tmpfs 754M 0 754M 0% /dev/shm
/dev/sdb1 7.9G 1.9G 5.7G 25% /labs
none 0 0 0 - /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc
sunrpc 0 0 0 - /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs


Clearly, the filesystem /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 does not have much space left.

Is there a way I can increase it?

Kind regards,
Apostolis
