For lack of any better ideas, I've decided that I would try and write a mini-blog here on my sdf website. There will be mostly nothing of use or importance here, however I will still share my day.

Today, I had to play musical-HDDs as a prod server's OS disk filled up. As it turns out, the backups and such were being stored to the OS disk, rather than the 2TB disk that was set specifically for backups. The solution? Thank god for LVM. Using LVM I was able to move the root partition to the 2TB disk, grow it enough to make things happy, then rearrange the other LVs such that the root partiton could live on the OS disk with swap and home, and the backup disk could live on the 2TB backup disk.
