Power Directory size larger than file system size?
Hi,

We currently have an Oracle database running and it is creating lots of processes in the /proc directory that are 1000M in size. The size of the /proc directory is now reading 26T. How can this be if the root file system is only 13GB?

I have seen this before we an Oracle temp file was 64GB in size on a file system that was 20GB in size, and the file system reported 7GB free at the time?

Can someone please shed some light on this.

Thanks,

Sparcman
