Operating Systems SCO du and dfspace reporting Post 302699637 by dextergenious on Wednesday 12th of September 2012 05:48:27 AM

On my partition /

du -k | tail -1 gives

38253272 (last line is the summantion )

df -k -v gives

Code:
/          /dev/root            871678974  63965476 807713498     8%

i.e it shows used blocks (1024) = 63965476 whereas du shows 38253272

I know that du is primarily for directory and file contents and df for partition but 38 gb and 63 gb are a big difference . Is 25 gb being taken by filesystem contents ???

regrads,

dexter

VOS_PARTINFO(1) 					       AFS Command Reference						   VOS_PARTINFO(1)

NAME
vos_partinfo - Reports the available and total space on a partition SYNOPSIS
vos partinfo -server <machine name> [-partition <partition name>] [-summary] [-cell <cell name>] [-noauth] [-localauth] [-verbose] [-encrypt] [-noresolve] [-help] vos p -se <machine name> [-p <partition name>] [-su] [-c <cell name>] [-noa] [-l] [-v] [-e] [-nor] [-h] DESCRIPTION
The vos partinfo command reports the amount of space available and total size on either all of the partitions on the indicated file server machine (if the -partition argument is omitted) or the specified partition on that file server machine. The Volume Location Database (VLDB) is not consulted. CAUTIONS
Currently, the maximum size of a volume is 2 terabytes (2^31 bytes). OPTIONS
-server <server name> Identifies the file server machine for which to display partition information. Provide the machine's IP address or its host name (either fully qualified or using an unambiguous abbreviation). For details, see vos(1). -partition <partition name> Identifies which partition on the file server machine specified by the -server argument for which to display information. Provide the partition's complete name with preceding slash (for example, "/vicepa") or use one of the three acceptable abbreviated forms. For details, see vos(1). -summary Prints storage summary. -cell <cell name> Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument with the -localauth flag. For more details, see vos(1). -noauth Assigns the unprivileged identity "anonymous" to the issuer. Do not combine this flag with the -localauth flag. For more details, see vos(1). -localauth Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local /etc/openafs/server/KeyFile file. The vos command interpreter presents it to the Volume Server and Volume Location Server during mutual authentication. Do not combine this flag with the -cell argument or -noauth flag. For more details, see vos(1). -verbose Produces on the standard output stream a detailed trace of the command's execution. If this argument is omitted, only warnings and error messages appear. -encrypt Encrypts the command so that the operation's results are not transmitted across the network in clear text. This option is available in OpenAFS versions 1.4.11 or later and 1.5.60 or later. -noresolve Shows all servers as IP addresses instead of the DNS name. This is very useful when the server address is registered as 127.0.0.1 or when dealing with multi-homed servers. This option is available in OpenAFS versions 1.4.8 or later and 1.5.35 or later. -help Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored. CAUTIONS
The partition-related statistics in this command's output do not always agree with the corresponding values in the output of the standard UNIX df command. The statistics reported by this command can be up to five minutes old, because the Cache Manager polls the File Server for partition information at that frequency. Also, on some operating systems, the df command's report of partition size includes reserved space not included in this command's calculation, and so is likely to be about 10% larger. OUTPUT
The output reports the amount of space available and total space for each specified partition. EXAMPLES
The following command displays all partitions on the file server machine "fs2.abc.com". % vos partinfo fs2.abc.com Free space on partition /vicepa: 27301 K blocks out of total 549197 Free space on partition /vicepb: 13646 K blocks out of total 69194 Free space on partition /vicepc: 31798 K blocks out of total 320315 Free space on partition /vicepd: 33302 K blocks out of total 494954 PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
