df showing invalid output

[Rigler, Stephen C.]

A couple of things that jump to mind are hard links and sparse files.

Subject: df showing invalid output

Hi All,

I am facing the following problem in my Redhat Linux
7.3 which runs on an HP Proliant Server having
hardware raid.
Kernel is 2.4.20-28.7smp.

I was having 1.4 GB free space in /opt.
This is the ouput of df -h

/dev/cciss/c0d0p3     9.8G  7.9G  1.4G  85% /opt

I moved around 7.5 GB of data from /opt

But the df -h output is not giving the correct
available space. 
it gives 

/dev/cciss/c0d0p3     9.8G  5.7G  3.7G  61% /opt

The used space should be around 1.4.. why is this
descrepancy... 

Also i tried copying moved files back to /opt. But
after 4Gb copying failed stating no space left on
device.

any comments appreciated.


Thanks
Anish
