Df -k shows full / But actually not -- Quotacheck is not helping here

[guna_1]

Hi,

df command is not giving exact utilization value .

I used the quotacheck command also , it is not helping me .

Please find the following outputs

Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on
usr1_dmn#usr1 8417920 4826188 0 100% /usr1

--------------------------------------------------------------------
/sbin/advfs> ./vdf -k usr1_dmn#usr1
Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on
usr1_dmn#usr1 8417920 4826190 0 100% /usr1
--------------------------------------------------------------------
/sbin/advfs> quotacheck -guv /usr1
*** Checking user and group quotas for usr1_dmn#usr1 (/usr1)
/sbin/advfs>

--------------------------------------------------------------------

/sbin/advfs> df -k /usr1
Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on
usr1_dmn#usr1 8417920 4826188 0 100% /usr1

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Please give me the solution except

Reboot the server or unmount and mount the filesystem again

Thanks in advance

Hi Guna,

why do you think, df does not show correct utilization?

greetings,

Michael

yes, what is the difference between

8417920 4826188

and

8417920 4826190

in case of a 100% full filesystem the 2 blocks doesn't count ;-)

Hi,

now I see it too. Deleting excessive spaces is not always a good idea. It makes lists hard to read. Not your fault, Guna.
Indeed as the thread suggests, check for processes which still have open files which got deleted.

greetings,

Michael
