What your are showing us is not the output of df -k but rather df -h.

From hobbitclient-sunos.sh you can see that Xymon uses following 
commands to report disk usage
...
echo "[df]"
ROOTFSTYPE=`/bin/df -n / | awk '{print $3}'`
/bin/df -F $ROOTFSTYPE -k
# Then see what fs types are in use, and weed out those we dont want.
FSTYPES=`/bin/df -n -l|cut -d: -f2 | awk '{print $1}'|egrep -v 
"^${ROOTFSTYPE}|^proc|^fd|^mntfs|^ctfs|^devfs|^objfs|^nfs|^lofs|^sharefs"|sort|uniq`
set $FSTYPES
while test "$1" != ""; do
  /bin/df -F $1 -k | egrep -v " /var/run" | tail +2
  shift
done
...

This means that /var/run, /dev/fd, /system/object, /etc/mnttab, 
/system/contract, /proc and /dev mounts are excluded from the output.
/var and /common seem to be lofs mounts and will be excluded as well.
