Operating Systems AIX Problems to show the real used space Post 94622 by bakunin on Monday 2nd of January 2006 12:40:29 PM

hmmm, missing the details I'm left to some guesses, but:

Yes, ML 1 is a bad idea to use, it is a good idea to grade up to 5.3 ML3.

The space on a device is finally freed up only, when the last process has stopped accessing it. That means: you have one process A writing to a file and using up diskspace. Now, from another process B, you delete the file process A writes to. This is possible, but the diskspace will be reported as being in use as long as process A is still running. Only after killing (or otherwise ending) it the space will be reported as free. You can try that easily out with a small test-fs and a small shellscript. Might something like this be happening and causing the delay?

I hope this helps.

NAME
nethogs - Net top tool grouping bandwidth per process SYNOPSIS
nethogs [-d] [-h] [-p] [-t] [-V] [device(s)] DESCRIPTION
NetHogs is a small 'net top' tool. Instead of breaking the traffic down per protocol or per subnet, like most such tools do, it groups bandwidth by process - and does not rely on a special kernel module to be loaded. So if there's suddenly a lot of network traffic, you can fire up NetHogs and immediately see which PID is causing this, and if it's some kind of spinning process, kill it. Options -d delay for refresh rate. -h display available commands usage. -p sniff in promiscious mode (not recommended). -t tracemode. -V prints Version info. device(s) to monitor. By default eth0 is being used. INTERACTIVE CONTROL
m cycle between display modes (kb/s, kb, b, mb) r sort by 'received' s sort by 'sent' q quit SEE ALSO
