Check disk space on Centos 8
sda1 is the drive which is 27% full with 285MB used
ASKER
Do u mean my web folder is located under :
/dev/sda1 1.1G 285M 780M 27% /boot
The total disk of my centos is 500GB. Do it mean the website can use max of 1.1GB only ?
/dev/sda1 1.1G 285M 780M 27% /boot

actually less since the operating system needs some disk space. so you can only use 780M more

df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/centos-root 50G 4.9G 46G 10% /
devtmpfs 1.9G 0 1.9G 0% /dev

tmpfs 379M 0 379M 0% /run/user/0
Does it mean there is no way to use the 445G ? Is it possible to extend /html folder to use the disk space there ?
Thx

In the file
"Disk /dev/mapper/centos-home: 477.9 GB"
"/dev/mapper/centos-root 50G 4.9G 46G 10% /"
"Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/centos-root 50G 4.9G 46G 10% /
- it seems that 477.9GB has been allocated to /dev/mapper/centos-home.
- Under here (477.9GB), 50GB is allocated to "/". My website is located here /var/www/html/website. Hence, it can only used up to 50GB
Correct ?
How can I extend the space from 50GB from the existing free space in my Centos ? Thx again.

bind mount is your friend. Move your data to somewhere on the big disk.For safety, you might want to copy it and satisfy yourself the copy is good before you rename the original (for later deletion). Servers have to be stopped while you do this: best might be to take the system down to single-user run level. Create empty directory /var/www/html/website. Create a /etc/fstab entry to bind-mount your copied directory onto this new directory e.g.
Note 1. The directory under /home can be called anything you like. Change the first field in the fstab line to match.
Note 2. You can use this for /var/www/html/website. /var/www/html or /var/www but not /var which is a system directory.
/home/website /var/www/html/website none bind 0 0
When the system is multi-user again, /var/www/html/website will have 470GB available to it.Note 1. The directory under /home can be called anything you like. Change the first field in the fstab line to match.
Note 2. You can use this for /var/www/html/website. /var/www/html or /var/www but not /var which is a system directory.

Thx. Something need to clarify
Create empty directory /var/www/html/website.
- my current website is located in this folder Do you mean I need to remove all files there.
Create a /etc/fstab entry to bind-mount your copied directory onto this new directory
- /home/website /var/www/html/website none bind 0 0
Is "/home/website" the new created directory ? What's the "/var/www/html/website" and where does it locate ?

Your original question, "How can I know the total usages under /var/www/html/website" is answered using this command...
Or something similar...
du -hs /var/www/html/website
Or something similar...
Which location does count in "du -H"
it is the first entry (/dev/mapper/centos-root);
there is 49gb free where your website resides
Do u mean my web folder is located under :
/dev/sda1 1.1G 285M 780M 27% /boot
no it is not under /boot
there is no separate mount point for /var so it would be in the root
best might be to take the system down to single-user run level.
seems to be more trouble than it's worth
better off stopping apache, moving www to /home and create a symlink in /var for www pointing to /home/www and be done with it
