So your problem is that "df" is showing 17G used and "du" is only showing 300M?
This happens when there are files still held open by processes, but that have been deleted.
Assuming that only Tomcat is using /var/tomcat, and restart of Tomcat should clear it up. As a last resort, a reboot should clear it up. If even a reboot doesn't fix it, then you should unmount /var/tomcat (perhaps in single user mode) and fsck it.
