Exclamation disk size problem

Dear Frnds

I have the problem in disk usage. The problem is out of my df -h


Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3 7.7G 7.7G 0 100% /
/dev/sda1 99M 11M 84M 11% /boot
tmpfs 1.9G 0 1.9G 0% /dev/shm

But When using du -sh command under / it's giving the usage is 5.5 GB only. Where is remaining 2.2Gb is gone ????

[root@localhost /]# du -sh
5.5G .

Pls any one help to know abt this issue.

Thanks& Regards
Siva
