Subject: How to access contents of directory underneath mounted volume?
Date: Tue, 26 Aug 2008 11:32:58 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <48B35D4A.2040200@scu.edu.au> (raw)
Hello,
On a RHEL4 host, I have a mountpoint, /thing, with a SAN volume mounted
at this mountpoint.
The local volume that contains the mountpoint (i.e. the volume that is
mounted at /) is nearly full, and I'm suspecting it is because there are
files on the local volume in the /thing directory. Of course, I can't
get to the /thing directory by normal means (at least AFAIK), because
there is currently a volume mounted at that mountpoint.
Does anyone know if it possible to access (i.e. see and delete) the
files in the /thing directory without having to umount the SAN volume
that is mounted at /thing?
Thanks,
Guy.
