Subject: discrepency between "df" and "du" on tmpfs filesystem?
Date: Thu, 01 Dec 2005 09:32:46 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <438F179E.5040402@nortel.com> (raw)
Someone noticed this on one of our machines. The rootfs is a 256MB
tmpfs filesystem. Depending on how you check the size, you get two
different answers.
root@10.41.50.66:/root> df -hl
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
rootfs 256M 250M 6.4M 98% /
none 32M 116K 32M 1% /tmp
root@10.41.50.66:/root> df -kl
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
rootfs 262144 255684 6460 98% /
none 32768 116 32652 1% /tmp
root@10.41.50.66:/root> du -sxk /
204672 /
root@10.41.50.66:/root> du -sxh /
200M /
Anyone know what's going on?
Chris
