Thanks for the responses, however ....

# df -klP /var
Filesystem                      1024-blocks      Used     Available     
Capacity Mounted on
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol03  18095332      5268424  11896424      31%      
/var

12826908 - 11896424
930484

So df is 930484KB out. Right lets see if that's due to reserved blocks:

# dumpe2fs /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol03 | grep -e "Reserved block count" -e 
"Block size"
dumpe2fs 1.39 (29-May-2006)
Reserved block count:     232621
Block size:               4096

232621 blocks at 4KB each = 952815616KB, or 908GB!!

Obviously I'm miscalculating here, what am I doing wrong ?

Cheers
Nick .
