Df -k command shows duplicate information in Solaris machine, How to get the exact disk space

While getting the total disk space in solaris machine using df -k command, i am getting the same disk info for every user available in that system.

Is there any way to remove it.

Code:

rpool/export/home/test1
                       573898752          73   554417618     1%    /export/home/test1

/export/home/test      558787946     4370328   554417618     1%    /home/test

Here user spaces of soluser1,2,3,5 were located under /export. It will give wrong result if i sum up all those values available under Available field.
Whereas in linux, i can get the correct space using the same command. How to get the correct disk space in solaris, please advice.

       install-solaris	invokes  the  Solaris  Install	program. Depending on graphical capability and available memory at the time of invocation,
       install-solaris invokes either a text-based installer or a graphical installer.

       The following minimum requirements for physical memory dictate which features are available during installation:

       For SPARC machines:

       128 MB

	   Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       128 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       384 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation

       For x86 machines:

       256 MB

	   Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       256 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       512 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation

       In some cases, even if the minimum physical memory is present, available virtual memory after system startup can limit the number  of  fea-
       tures available.
