Where is the missing disk space?

Weimin Niu-OracleJul 9 2012 — edited Jul 9 2012
I have one Solaris 10 box and one of the mounted files system missing over 100GB of disk space. How can I find out where missing disk space go and how to fix it?

Below is output from the machine - the file system is /space, df output reported there is 135GB in /space and du output reported /space is 26GB - but /space is 100% capacity (0k available).
