What is the reason for this? Is it fixed? Or how do I fix it

rclone mount  sftp:test /testmount/

welcome to the forum,

@yang_cui

remote may not have the required df utility

does your system has df or not?
if not, can install it.

It is explained in sftp docs:

SFTP usually supports the about command, but it depends on the server. If the server implements the vendor-specific VFS statistics extension, which is normally the case with OpenSSH instances, it will be used. If not, but the same login has access to a Unix shell, where the df command is available (e.g. in the remote's PATH), then this will be used instead. If the server shell is PowerShell, probably with a Windows OpenSSH server, rclone will use a built-in shell command (see shell access). If none of the above is applicable, about will fail.

So worst case you wont be able to run rclone about nor see free/used space on your remote.
