Pull latex image

1

HI,

I ran the command “indico maint pull-latex-image” as indico user. My root / partition is only 1Gb. I expanded /var/ to about 7 Gb. I see that the root partion filled up when pulling the image. How do I resolve this issue?

Try making /opt/indico/.local/share/containers (delete it first) a symlink to something in /var/ or whatever place you have that has more space.

However, your space will still be extremely tight, the container image takes around 5.6 GB of disk space:

$ podman unshare du -hs .local/share/containers/
5.6G    .local/share/containers/

Hmm…

My /opt should have enough space. 11G is free.

/dev/mapper/sys-opt 21G 9.0G 11G 47% /opt

Guess my bind mount of tmp was the wrong direction. I switched it around. So it is good now.

Thank you.
