linux partition on Lightsail

Hi.

I understand that you are experiencing the error below: “timeout problem / no space left on device”

To troubleshoot your error you need to upsize your Lightsail instance, block storage disk, or database, create a snapshot of your resource, and then create a new, larger version of that resource using the snapshot [1]. Prerequisites: You'll need a snapshot of your Lightsail instance, block storage disk, or database. For more information, see the following document [2] You can also create a new block storage disk and attach it to your instance [3].

You can you the following commands to check free space:

1. df -h (With -h option, it shows the disk space in human-readable format (MB and GB)).
2. fdisk -l (Shows disk size along with disk partitioning information (may require sudo privileges)).
3. df -T (If you want to view the disk usage with more details like filesystem type and blocks.)
