lsof is your friend.

Use

Code:
lsof | grep /opt | grep deleted

or

Code:
lsof +L1

Both of the above will show the process which has the deleted files opened. So until you stop the process, the space will not be freed.

Code:
$ lsof | grep /tmp | grep deleted
less      22073        root    4r      REG        8,1     1948    1504213 /tmp/file (deleted)

Code:
$ lsof +L1
COMMAND   PID USER   FD   TYPE DEVICE SIZE NLINK    NODE NAME
less    22073 root    4r   REG    8,1 1948     0 1504213 /tmp/file (deleted)

From man page:
Code:
A specification of the form ``+L1'' will select open files that have been unlinked.

Find out which is the process, and do the required stuff.

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code: (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified. AUTHOR
