  Tutorial: Reader-Submitted Tech Tip: Peeking Under Mount Points

Find out how to use NFS to inspect the underlying directory structure if the reported disk usage seems inconsistent.

Tutorial Details:

Occasionally, a system administrator may encounter a file system on which the disk usage reported by du and df seems inconsistent.

Missing space could be consumed by files actually located in directories that are current mount points. Can the mounted file systems be lifted to peek under the mount points without disturbing the system while it is running in production? Probably not. However, it is possible to use NFS to inspect the underlying directory structure.
