I'd guess that you've got 10.6G marked as "in use" in the free space maps that isn't referenced by any inode. 'fsck -f /var' should fix it; remember that you'll have to unmount /var first. -- David Johnston <david@littlebald.com> Little Bald Consulting, LLC _______________________________________________ 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/
