Anyone know why I would get this? I imagine there is some corruption. Any suggestions?

Wow! Have you tried unmounting/remounting? Shut down Oracle first of course.

I want to be good, is that not enough?
 
I'll have to wait till after hours. The data appears to be intact at this point so I will be bringing down Oracle and then running a dump before I can unmount or do anything else.

 
I get this all the time, and it's not corruption on my systems. On a couple systems I have, we have a number of volumes that are filled up to well over 90% over a period of time, then everything on it is deleted. This delete should bring it down to something like 2% to 5%. As soon as the files are deleted, I get the same weird numbers for a period of time, including the 12 to 14 digit percentage numbers for capacity. The files are gone, it's just that the "df" output is messed up for a period of time.

If you wait about 10 minutes and check it again, is it back to something normal? That's about how long mine takes to recover.

This seems to only happen on Solaris 10 systems for me.
 
Quick demo...
Code:
[b]$ df -k .   [/b]

[b]$ df -h .   [/b]

Thanks everyone for all your comments and suggestions. Ultimately I could not fix it by delteing files or restarting etc... So I rebuilt the slice on another disk and then moved the data. It is back to normal now.
