Description of problem:

A full filesystem is reporting as having 5.5 gb free space in the storage pool window.

For example:

# df -h /var/lib/libvirt/images
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/md123       99G   94G   12K 100% /var/lib/libvirt/images

# df -i /var/lib/libvirt/images
Filesystem      Inodes IUsed   IFree IUse% Mounted on
/dev/md123     6553600    36 6553564    1% /var/lib/libvirt/images

Se attached screen-shot.

virt-manager.noarch          0.9.4-1.fc17     @updates-testing
virt-manager-common.noarch   0.9.4-1.fc17     @updates-testing

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2013-07-03 21:29:00 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '17'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life.

Bug Reporter:  Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 is end of life. If you 
would still like  to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version  of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 
'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 3 Cole Robinson 2013-07-11 19:49:34 UTC
Sorry this never received a response, but it is unlikely to be fixed in F17 at this point. If you can still reproduce on F19, please reopen and we can go from there. Thanks
