See more space which was linked from the other link I sent. Reading documentation so you understand how things work is VERY important. There is no magic wand to fix your problem.

Since /home2 is using more space than is available in /home, you might consider buying a larger drive for /home or you need to repartition so /home is equal size of /home2 (just giving /home enough space for backing up /home2 won't help since /home2 will probably grow). Your only other choice is to remove un-needed files from /home2.

Dear RTM,

Thank you for your support. And sorry to bother you so much.
I have managed to delete few extra files both from /home as well as from /home2, now backup will run temporarily.

But still I'll want to replace disk for /home with a larger size. Would you please guide me the steps to replace it i.e. backup of /home, installing new disk, mouting of new disk as /home and etc.

I'll want to add this too, FYI:

This is a NEC EXPRESS 5800/NEC 120LF system and disks are 2 x 18GB Ultra 160 SCSI Hot-Swap 10krmp HDD (Max Internal Storage is 732GB) and current disk usage is as follows:

$ df -kl
filesystem kbytes used avail capacity mounted on
/dev/root 6474195 1870132 4604063 29% /
/dev/stand 24097 5721 18376 24% /stand
/proc 0 0 0 0% /proc
/dev/fd 0 0 0 0% /dev/fd
/dev/dsk/c0b0t0d0s4 10241437 3811006 6430431 38% /home
/dev/dsk/c0b0t1d0sc 17422492 11533488 5889004 67% /home2
/processorfs 0 0 0 0% /system/processor
/dev/_tcp 0 0 0 0% /dev/_tcp

I think so /root and /home are mounted on same SCSI drive not sure about it since new to UNIX, if i am right in this so i think its going to be very difficult to replace this SCSI drive with new one. Please guide.

Waiting for your valued suggestions.

Read the links posted already - there you will find other links which explain the procedure of replacement of a disk drive.
