[mythtv-users] Missing Disk Space with XFS

	I'm having the same issue with an ext3 partition.  If I umount
it and run fsck, it seems to reclaim the space.  The last time I ran
fsck, it came back saying the volume was clean right away, so I don't
know if it did anything or not:

mythtv mnt # fsck -CV /dev/mythtv/myth1
fsck 1.34 (25-Jul-2003)
[/sbin/fsck.ext2 (1) -- /mnt/store] fsck.ext2 -C0 /dev/mythtv/myth1
e2fsck 1.34 (25-Jul-2003)
/dev/mythtv/myth1: clean, 477/45285376 files, 39163232/90562560 blocks


	I have to do this once a month or I run out of space.  Any
thoughts?

Hmmm.....

Ok, not sure if I did the correct thing, but....

Edited /etc/fstab to not mount the volume on startup
Rebooted the myth box
Ran xfs_repair /dev/hda5

Now all that disk space has re-appeared.

Was that bad ?

All,

Have a MythTV box running, and storing all eps to a 200gb XFS volume,
all
works great.

Problem I have now is that as far as I can see, there is only 80gb of
actual
data on the volume, but its showing that there is less than 15gb free. 

/dev/hda5            183870432 167968400  15902032  92% /video

Since I'm a bit of a n00b at this, can someone give me any ideas why
100gb
of disk is missing, and how I might get it back ?  I've noticed that
deleting content from the Myth console appears to delete the files, but
the
disk space isnt being reclaimed.

Thanks

Glenn
