When I delete large files, it appears the space is not being reclaimed.
I am running OpenSolaris 2009.06 snv_109 but I believe I was having the
same issue with 2008.11 as well.
When I delete a file a du shows the used space go down but a df does not
show the free space. I believe it is not usable because I ran out of
space trying to do a pkg image-update.
Has anyone seen this behavior before?
