The server and client are both using Ubuntu 16.04. I have setup both Samba and NFS on the server. I have installed both cifs-utils and the nfs utils on the client. When I run `df -h` on the server I get the following output: terrance@terrance-ubuntu:~$ ssh 10.0.0.220 'df -h' /dev/md1p1 15T 7.4T 6.4T 54% /media/storage Then I go and set up both mounts on my client for testing: terrance@terrance-ubuntu:~$ df -h 10.0.0.220:/media/storage 15T 7.4T 6.4T 54% /media/NAS //10.0.0.220/storage 15T 8.1T 6.4T 57% /cifs/server The first one listed above is the NFS mount. As a test last night I copied an 18GB file to my server and the CIFS mount reported now 8.4T used. When I deleted the file it went back to 8.1T used. There is no way 18GB = 300GB. What is the reason for the discrepancy in the used size calculations for the CIFS mount? Thank you!
Just tested in 18.04 with the same issue. apt-cache policy cifs-utils cifs-utils: Installed: 2:6.8-1 Candidate: 2:6.8-1 Version table: *** 2:6.8-1 500 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
