Limit Number of Files/Folder under Guest OS

[ndeen]

Hello, currently we virtual the Centos under Windows 7 ,
everything seem great, apps work fine, until its show up logs "Disk Full", but actually still left 2-3 giga space.

I checking out its cause number of folder/files so many cause this, seem limit is from VirtualBox Host (Windows) or Guest OS, not sure ..
Any idea pointing to checking which is the cause,

when I tried Centos without Virtualization, it seem fine number of files, ten thousand files/folder and more ...

It sounds like the host is Windows from you description and not Linux. If so I will move this to the appropriate location once confirmed.

Post the guests log file ( as an attachment ). Right click on the guest in the Main Manager then click show log. Save and post as an attachment. Compress if it is too large to post.

As well as the results of the following from the guests terminal

• df -h

Well, in your Windows host (yes Perry, you should move the topic ) you'll have only a couple of files associated with the VM, so that means that the message is coming from the CentOS guest. VirtualBox does not pose any limitations in the number/size of files. It actually doesn't care, or know anything about that! Follow Perry's instructions and search for similar issues in a CentOS forum for a potential solution.

Hello, I tried both with Linux Host OS also,
seem got same result, disk full based of number of files/folder on system. When I delete some many files (log of apps) its ok again,

HostOS use ext4 FS
Linux VM Os use ext4 FS also,

I willing to help what kind of log I should give.

I believe that Perryg already gave you the answer to this question, along with clear instructions.
