Hallo,
thank you all for your help although the reasons for the differences in
volprint and df couldn't be cleared. The most answers i got sounded much
the same like this:

> Disklabel reports its sizes in blocks (512 bytes), which is the same
> unit df uses (without -k); df -k reports in units of Kb (1024 bytes)
> This should explain the difference.

but if you take a closer look to the output of volprint, disklabel an df
(attached at the first mail) you would see differences. Some answers
mentioned, that the disklabel could have been changed by someone over
the time, but i installed this server just the week ago. Even the
official digital support team, which had a look on the servers
configuration, was a bit helpless. So i reinstalled everything from the
scratch and everything looks fine now.
The only difference between the first installation was, that the patches
have been installed after the complete mirroring of root, swap and
/user! And i know some patches are definetly concerning volrootmir and
volencap, so perhaps there might be some problem!
