Losing Disk space

I am running an NT4 Server with one large (21GB) partition for user files. Every so often, this partition will get down to 0kb of free space. I went through last month and backed up some folders to a CD and deleted them from the server and that helped. But now I have the same situation except that deleting folders does no good. I deleted about 300MB in folders but still only have about 40MB of free space. Am I just missing something?

You could check your swap file settings, if it is on this partition.
Usually the minimum is set to 112 MB and maximum ....
So it might be expanding to fill up the drive as needed while running.
Even if this is what is happening ..... setting the swap maximum size smaller may not be an optimum solution.

 

Start in root of the drive in question and execute the following command.
dir /s sortorder S

This will recurrsively display your files on that drive and display their size.

find out who has the largest files.
