df issue: incorrect output

shadeb · 02-21-2010, 01:03 PM

Hi there,

I just shrink my /home (lvm2 / ext3) and next to a reboot df give me this ouput:

df -h

Quote:

/dev/mapper/vg-home 281G 265G 2.2G 100% /home

df

Quote:

/dev/mapper/vg-home 294155264 276968816 2244244 100% /home

so for my debian 265 + 2.2 = 281 ?

the home is suppose to be set to 285 Go and the lv for the home to 285.17 Go

Do you have any idea about how to fix that? Or if I missed something when I shrink my home.

If you allow for 5% of the original value to be reserved by the filesystem to handle fragmentation etc, the figures come out pretty close; I get 277,203,256.8 you got 276,968,816
