Df reporting double size of du after fsck & reboot
Solaris 8
running on a Sparcstation 5 (Aurora) with 170MHz processor and 256MB ram

This is AFTER doing fsck and reboot.

820030k vs 385252k

All other files in /usr/asm not in /usr/asm/sys or /usr/asm/data amount to 43k. The /usr/asm/lost+found is 8k. somehow df and other applications flagging for disk full are seeing an extra 400000k, where is this?

this is run as superuser, so all hidden files should be shown right?

Code:
# uptime
 12:36pm  up 5 min(s),  1 user,  load average: 0.09, 0.17, 0.09
# df -k

Have look at this recent thread:
Df -h does not tally

Fix:
Solved

I didn't see this in other threads, so my problem was someone copied a bunch of files into a folder that should just be used as a mounting point. Once mounted those files and folders are hidden to du, but df still sees it. Essentially, i did this:
Code:
# umount /dev/dsk/c0t1d0s4
#du -ak /usr/me | sort -nr | more
780000 /usr/me
400001  /usr/me/data
400000  /usr/me/data/hiddenstuff
#rm /usr/me/data/*
#mount /dev/dsk/c0t1d0s4 /usr/me/data
#df -k
Filesystem            kbytes    used   avail capacity  Mounted on
/dev/dsk/c0t1d0s0      91813   19880   62752    25%    /

/proc                      0       0       0     0%    /proc
fd                         0       0       0     0%    /dev/fd
mnttab                     0       0       0     0%    /etc/mnttab
/dev/dsk/c0t1d0s3     245943   35200  186149    16%    /var
swap                  548972       8  548964     1%    /var/run
swap                  548972       8  548964     1%    /tmp

Could I also advocate using the -x flag for du to ensure it does not cross into other filesystems below the start point you specify, e.g. /usr/me/data



Kind regards,
