    Friends,

    I did mount/unmount and than restored backup, but I doubt some files left ,
    see the size of used directory

    Filesystem kbytes used avail %used Mounted on
    /dev/vg02/lvol1 17776640 7705132 9914184 44% /oracle ( New disk where
    I restored backup )
    /dev/vg01/lvol1 8708096 7787248 916192 89% /oracleold ( Old disk
    previously mounted as /oracle took backup, than changed mounting as
    /oracleold , and mounted new disk as /oracle 'vg02' and restored backup )

    But I afraid /oracleold used 7787248 and /oracle used is 7705132 .
    Where is my 82116 KB data ?

    If I directly do " cd /oracle , cp /oracleold/* . " than is it correct
    method to swap disk with data, file permissions..etc?

    /oracleold contains oracle installation and database.

    thanks
    pankaj
