we are getting alerts from cpanel regarding "DISKWARN: /cpanelbackup on (11.11.11.111): 591.45/687.67 GB - 91%"

but if you calculate cpanelbackup
688 GB - 592GB = 96 GB should be available, whereas it is showing 62 GB, why it is showing wrong info
how do i correct it ?

 

[crazyaboutlinux]

also "/dev/sda3" is wrong

/dev/sda3            1016G   35G  931G   4% /
1016 GB - 35 GB = 981 GB (difference 981-931 GB = 50GB)

I don't think it matters in this case.
Have you rebooted the server?

 

[crazyaboutlinux]

Does it really required to reboot the server

 

[quietFinn]

If I understand you right you are complaining that the "df" command is not working correctly.

The command "df" is not part of cPanel, it's part of the operating system.

I checked in a few servers and it seems that it always shows wrong, i.e. Size - Used > Avail

 

[crazyaboutlinux]

yes you are right, i have also checked in my few servers, and it is also showing wrong info.
what is the solution to that ?
