Hi all,

I'm using 4.11 version of FreeBSD and I have a problem with the /
partition disk usage.
Actually the / partition was 90% usage, but after reboot, it turned
into 31% usage.

Jschen# df -h
Filesystem    Size   Used  Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/da0s1a    20G   5.6G    13G    31%    /
/dev/da0s1e   418G   184G   201G    48%    /home

Any ideas?
Thanks.

You probably deleted a file out from under something that still had the file open. The space freed by removing the file won't show up as free until the process that had the file opened closes it.

A typical example would be deleting a large log file in /var/log that syslogd still has open.
