Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

On both RHEL6.4 and RHEL6.6 we create the same volume group and on top of it the same volume with the same size and formatted it with mkfs.ext4 but when looking into the generated file system we have different size !

RHEL6.4# df -k /tmp/test
Filesystem           1K-blocks  Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/vgl_root-test_2
                         63461  5385     54800   9% /tmp/test

RHEL6.6# df -k /tmp/test
Filesystem           1K-blocks  Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/vgl_root-test_2
                         59365  1289     54800   3% /tmp/test
