In the last episode (Sep 28), Modulok said: > I have a file hierarchy of about 18GiB which was copied from a UFS 2 > file system one hard disk to a UFS 2 file system on a gmirror array. > The size of the two hierarchies differ by 12 bytes according to du(1). > No errors were reported by cp(1) during the copy operation. du doesn't count in bytes; it counts in disk blocks or KB. A 12KB difference is probably just due to better packing of directories in your newly-created tree as compared to your orignal one. To figure out where the difference is, run "du -a" in both trees and diff the two outputs. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com
