My thanks goes to aielloster@gmail.com, Franky Liedekerk, Chris Pinnock, Debbie Tropiano, Stephane Tsacas and Grzegorz Bakalarski. In short, I just "mv"ed /var/ld/ld.config, and all was well. I restarted a limited set of the daemons that appeared on fuser result, except for those processes which appeared only on 'fuser /var/ld/ld.config' (I don't think I would've been OK after 'fuser -k /var/ld/ld.config'.) I didn't have any special path in libary path. I didn't need to run crle. (After I stopped/killed daemons/processes and restarted them, they all came back on 'fuser /var/ld/ld.config'.) Anyway, after stopping the set of daemons (and killing some processes), I umounted the old disk from /var and mounted /var with the new disk I put in /etc/vfstab in advance. And I then restarted the daemons and processes. I've already 'mv'ed most of the /var directories (on old disk) to /newvar (on new disk) and symlinked them from /newvar back to /var. I also did the same for /var/run (I created /newvar/run, killed all processes on /var/run, and mounted /var/run again as in /etc/init.d/buildinittab). In the process, it broke my incoming tip connection and I am not able to get back yet. FYI the new disk (previously mounted on /newvar and now on /var) mounted without fsck but the old disk (previously mounted on /var and now on /oldvar) needed fsck before remounting. The loss of incoming tip connection was the subject of another question posted on this list, and I thought I'd fix that after a reboot although I was reluctantly braced for a reboot of the server. But fortunately it went without reboot and I can still use some wisdom on the incoming tip issue. I'll post a separate summary for /var and incoming tip conneciton.
