It created some 50 intermediate files named MOINTS. Afterwards, I killed the job using kill -9 command. I changed some input options and I restarted the job with the following command:
./pcgamess -f -i 3214h1h_freq.inp -o 3214h1h_freq1205.out -ex /750GB/pyedlap/pcgathlon &
Then I killed the job and there was only one MOINTS file. I just wanted to make sure enough hard drive space was there. I used the df command to verify storage space. Following is the partial output:
/dev/hdc1 732549636 103808692 628740944 15% /750GB (1K-blocks)
The size of MOINTS is only 1343312.
-rw-rw-r-- 1 pyedlap pyedlap 1343312 Dec 5 10:13 MOINTS
Now I have the following situation:
I don't see any of the old MOINTS files ( 50 in number). They just disappeared. I used ls -a command. Still, my hard drive is 15% full. It used to be 1% full. Would you please suggest how to remove the unseen MOINTS files to recover the hard drive space?
Thank you very much for your help,
