how to check overall hard disk utilization in unix?
we use bdf command to find the utilized space for the particular path
bdf filepath
how can i find overall hard disk utilization?
try df -kh
Using Glance / gpm... or iostat but then what do you mean by utilisation? ( can also be % activity (load) you know...)
bdf -sl
A few questions:-
- What have you tried so far?
- What output/errors are you getting?
- What OS and version are you using? Different ones have slightly different tools.
- What information do you want? It could be:-
[list] - Total disk allocated to the server
- Total disk allocated within the server (e.g. assigned to filesystems)
- Total space used within filesystems
- Space used within database
- Performance usage
- Perhaps something else?
[/list] - What format do you need the output?
What's your thinking on these? If you are clearer then you will get a more useful answer.
Thanks,
Robin
