We started to experience a problem with the filesystem which houses the
Oracle binaries (/orabin). This filesystem is mirrored with Solaris
Volume Manager. We are running Solaris 9 and Oracle 9.2.0.6.0.

This filesystem appears to grow although nothing is being written to it
at the time.

Yesterday we experienced a disk error which we though might be the cause
of this. We replaced the disk, and ran newfs on the metadevice. Using
"df -k" the partition showed ~50% capacity.

Today -

Filesystem size used avail capacity Mounted on
/dev/md/dsk/d70 6.2G 5.3G 898M 86% /orabin

prophet# du -hs /orabin
  4.3G /orabin

  prophet# df -F ufs -oi
  Filesystem iused ifree %iused Mounted on
  /dev/md/dsk/d70 67999 726625 9% /orabin

  The inodes have not changed.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks
