Dear sun-managers,
after one of our servers started reporting "file system full" errors
whereas all our monitoring tools told us that there were still some
15Gb free I noticed some strange problem:
For that file system the df-output seems to be wrong. Used+avail
capacity is about 15Gb more than the total space in that file system
(see df output below). So when "used" equaled "kbytes" the machine
started reporting "file system full". "avail" still showed 15Gb free.
Does anyone know what might be the cause of this problem? I have
two other identical machines, where the df output is correct (the only
difference there is that the file systems on those machines only
have 150Gb capacity).
The machine is a Ultra-60 running Solaris 7 with kernel patch 106541-11
and a patch cluster which contained that kernel patch. The file
system in question is mounted with the "logging" option.
Thanks a lot for any help to fix the problem. As usual I will post
a summary.
Jan-Olaf
