About the Available Storage displayed in WebUI

Post by Frederick888 »

I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 Desktop on my server.

PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
6723 root 20 0 714m 447m 8612 R 5.3 22.8 5:59.81 deluged
14346 root 20 0 60344 13m 2644 S 3.3 0.7 8:42.73 speedometer
14727 root 20 0 60344 13m 2644 S 3.3 0.7 9:12.16 speedometer
7409 root 20 0 94932 29m 4040 S 1.7 1.5 0:50.39 deluge-web

And as you see, I'm running both Deluge and WebUI by root. The folder fo downloading is /home/desktop/Downloads.

root@ks356457:~# df -hlT

As far as I know, Ubuntu will leave some space for the account of root. But I'm now running Deluge by root, the Available Storge should be 921-315=606GBs but not 560GBs, right?
By the way, if I try to take up space of more than 560GBs, will Deluge refuse that action?

'Available Storage' is based upon Download location which by default is in home and this matches the 560G as shown by df.

The size discrepancy has nothing to do with Deluge but rather to do with formatting with ext4: http://askubuntu.com/questions/131516/n ... used-space

It will download data until it runs out of disk space.
