My drive is only 250 Gig and I have it mounted as /var/spool here is my df for the whole file system. /dev/ad14s1d 226G 810M 207G 0% /var/spoolSo I know that the 256G is wrong. Can any one tell me what is up with file size ?
no it's right. it's 256G sized but most space unallocated. du shows how many space is allocated.
in unix files can have "holes" == blocks that are not allocated to disk
