RMA on Linux: Diskfreespace incorrect
Posted: Tue Mar 20, 2007 5:13 am
We have RMA 1.22 running on severals Linux boxes. (Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 3).
The problem is that there is a big difference between the freespace value returned from RMA and the actual freespace.
Example:
df -h
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol02 50G 45G 2.6G 95% /var
and the value returned by RMA: 5218Mb
How can this difference be explained?
Because of this, we had a full filesystem that wasn't noticed (0 bytes free, but HostMonitor still reported 2595Mb free).
