Hi,
Server Information in WHM on my server shows:-
/dev/hda3 6.9G 6.2G 390M 95% /var
But, when I check it from ssh, it shows as under:-
[email protected] [/]# du -sh /var
364M /var
I think, actual usage on my /var is only 364MB, but WHM is showing wrong figure. How can I fix it?
Thanks

The difference comes about because there are open files that have been deleted on the partition. This typically happens if you delete a log file but forget to restart the service that has it open. It will continue to write to the deleted file until it is restarted. df, show is what WHM is using, shows the amount of space used including open files, du shows the amount of space, excluding the deleted, but open files.
