I've occasionally seen some disk/file operations under some circumstances not fully complete due to buffering.<BR>
You can try the "sync" command for these cases.<BR>

I have a WTF in progress, and I can't figure out why. I have a CentOS box
that I use to store various backups on at work. All the backups are
stored on a separate RAID 6 setup (11TB - LVM using ext4). The backups
area is shared via Samba.
So I just rm a directory that was close to 6TB is size. However when I do
a df -h to disk usage remains unchanged.
I thought Samba might have something to do with this, so I restarted the
service. No Change. I rebooted the box and no change.
Has anyone experienced this before, and if so how did you reclaim the
space?
Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Bob
