I began an update of one of our servers via yum and, coincidentally or not, I have been getting the following logged into the message file since:

Now, this tells me that dev dm-0 is out of space but, what is dm-0?
On my system,

S/b very similar on yours.
So, can anyone tell me what is happening and why?
NP here. Do a df or du on the equivalent LVM(?) item.
