Reclaiming free space after deleting log files

If a filesystem is full (for example /var on iolaos) and you delete some log files in order to make some room on the filesystem, you observe that the space does not appear to be there when running the df command.

The solution to this is to restart the application which is using the log files deleted. e.g: if you delete an apache log file then you should restart the httpd service.
