Dear Sun Managers,
I've a Solaris machine. There is a mismatch on df and
du reporting output for /var file system used
capacity.
df -k reported /var used 3134883K of disk space.
However, I sum up the output of du -sk * for /var, it
reported only 371170 is used up.
Why is there such a big difference between this 2
output and what could be the problem?
$ df -k
Filesystem kbytes used avail capacity
