    Hi Guys,
    I'm trying to free up some space on one of my disks.
    The box is a P-series running VIO and a Aix ver 5.3 virtual machine, disks are on a DS5300 SAN.

    so df shows i have 7.64GB

    root@orclprod:/u99 # df -g
    Filesystem GB blocks Free %Used Iused %Iused Mounted on
    /dev/u99lv 59.00 7.64 88% 52356 3% /u99

    but if if i do
    ^Croot@orclprod:/u99 # du -gs *
    0.03 Java131.rte
    0.03 Java131.rte.tar
    0.08 aix5.3
    0.00 arch
    0.00 backup
    0.13 ca
    0.30 clone
    0.11 cv
    0.03 fin
    0.03 fin1
    0.00 ksh
    0.00 lost+found
    2.60 patches
    root@orclprod:/u99 #

    What gives? Why does du show only 7.64GB free but i've only got ~3g of files on the disk and it's supposed to be 59G.

    Also what is the name of the file that specifies the mount points in /etc or is it doine in VIO?

    Thanks
    P

    Try the du command without -s Ex.

    du -g /u99
