Hi I am using lvm on debian woody. The version would be about 1.0.x. foo:/var# df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda1 11G 8.1G 1.9G 81% / /dev/vol/var 18G 16G 2.7G 85% /var /dev/vol/home 4.9G 1.8G 3.1G 36% /home /dev/vol/tmp 500M 61M 439M 13% /tmp /dev/extra/data 70G 9.5G 60G 14% /data foo:/var# du . -sh 5.4G . foo:/var# Please take a look at /dev/vol/var which is 18G big and it says 16G is already used. But when I check the disk usage by running du command, it shows only 5.4G is used. Then...where does this size mismatch come from? -- -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- Shawn Soon-Son Kwon, founder and leader of KLDP ( http://kldp.org , http://kldp.net ) Phone: 82-16-535-7282 Homepage: http://kldp.org/~kss -*-*-*-t-h-e-*-o-p-e-n-*-s-o-u-r-c-e-*-c-o-m-m-u-n-i-t-y- _______________________________________________ linux-lvm mailing list linux-lvm@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-lvm read the LVM HOW-TO at http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
