    Hello,

    A client of mine send me the following output of 'df' command, I need to know the reason that 'df' shows 'Permission denied' and if possible to know how to reproduce that state.
    Any ideas?

    $ df -g
    Filesystem GB blocks Free %Used Iused %Iused Mounted on
    http://...
    /dev/fms_logsplv 0.75 0.75 1% 11 1% /fms_logs
    /dev/fms_logsOldplv
    df: /fms_logs/Old: Permission denied
    /dev/audlogsplv
    df: /audit/logs: Permission denied
    /dev/audlogsOldplv
    df: /audit/logs/Old: Permission denied
    /dev/ihslv 2.00 1.69 16% 1624 1% /usr/IBMIHS
    /dev/smwalv 1.00 0.79 22% 1347 1% /usr/netegrity
    /dev/ihsloglv 2.00 2.00 1% 52 1% /var/HTTP
    /dev/webworklv
    df: /home/webuser/work: Permission denied

    I have no access to this machine, also I tried to change permissions to directories and logical volumes, but I could not reproduce the same output.

    hi,

    you get this message, because mount didn't have read access for others.

    you can fix it like this:

    stop the application using /fms_logs/Old file system
    
umount /fms_logs/Old chmod 755 /fms_logs/Old mount /fms_logs/Old chmod 755 /fms_logs/Old
