linux 进程占用的文件夹,Linux 中删除正在被进程占用的文件，磁盘空间不被释放。...

在 Linux 系统中，通过 rm 命令删除一个文件，实际上是在相应的目录结构中 unlink 这个文件。如果这个文件仍然被打开着，这个文件仍然可以被这个进程所使用，并将继续占用磁盘空间。等这个程序关闭该文件后，对应文件的空间才会被释放。

=== TEST STEPS ===

1. Create a 1GB file.

[root@rhel674 ~]# df -h

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on

/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_root

6.5G 3.3G 3.0G 53% /

tmpfs 499M 0 499M 0% /dev/shm

/dev/sda1 477M 36M 416M 8% /boot

/dev/sdb 30G 17G 12G 58% /pool

[root@rhel674 ~]# dd if=/dev/zero of=/largefile bs=10M count=100

100+0 records in

100+0 records out

1048576000 bytes (1.0 GB) copied, 30.2106 s, 34.7 MB/s

[root@rhel674 ~]# df -h

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on

/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_root

6.5G 4.2G 2.0G 69% /

tmpfs 499M 0 499M 0% /dev/shm

/dev/sda1 477M 36M 416M 8% /boot

/dev/sdb 30G 17G 12G 58% /pool

2. In another terminal, open this file.

[root@rhel674 ~]# python

Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, May 22 2015, 08:34:51)

[GCC 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-15)] on linux2

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

>>>

>>> f = open('/largefile', 'r+');

>>> print f

>>>

[root@rhel674 ~]# lsof | grep largefile

python 22423 root 3u REG 253,0 1048576000 23936 /largefile

3. Delete this file. And we can see the file is still being open.

[root@rhel674 ~]# rm -rf /largefile

[root@rhel674 ~]#

[root@rhel674 ~]# df -h

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on

/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_root

6.5G 4.2G 2.0G 69% / <<<==== Still ocupying 1 GB space.

tmpfs 499M 0 499M 0% /dev/shm

/dev/sda1 477M 36M 416M 8% /boot

/dev/sdb 30G 17G 12G 58% /pool

[root@rhel674 ~]# lsof | grep largefile

python 22423 root 3u REG 253,0 1048576000 23936 /largefile (deleted)

4. Close this file.

>>> f.close()

>>>

[root@rhel674 ~]# lsof | grep largefile

[root@rhel674 ~]#

[root@rhel674 ~]# df -h

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
