Hi
I thought that as well or you have a sparse file/s present
- that would account for the results of du << df results
but in this case du results >> df results - which is a bit of a puzzle

Might be an open file, that has been unlinked. Try using the command
fuser /dev/lvemc08 to see what processes have the filesystem open. If this
is a huge number of processes, you may have to shut down your application
to
find it.
good luck.
