Operating Systems SCO du and dfspace reporting Post 302699681 by jgt on Wednesday 12th of September 2012 06:52:15 AM
Old 09-12-2012
From the man page for du. (SCO 6.0.0)
Quote:

The du command gives the number of blocks contained in all files
and directories recursively within each directory and file
specified by the list in the names argument. The block count
includes the indirect blocks of the file. If names is not
supplied, the current directory is used.

NOTE: "Indirect blocks" refers to blocks used by the filesystem
to store pointers to the actual data blocks that are part of the
file. Hence for large files (that is, those which use large
numbers of pointers), the du command reports disk usage larger
than simply the data blocks associated with the file contents.

Options recognizes the following options: Generate a report for all mounted HFS file systems. Report size rather than user statistics. Generates histogram statistics in 3-column format: Column 1: File size in blocks. Sizes are listed in ascending order up to 499 blocks per file. Files occupying 499 or more blocks are counted together on a single line as 499-block files (but column 3 is based on actual number of blocks occupied). Column 2: Number of files of size indicated in column 1. Column 3: Cumulative total blocks occupied by files counted in current plus all preceding lines. Use of this option overrides the and options. Display number of files and space occupied by each user. Specify the file system type Calculate the number of blocks in the file based on file size rather than actual blocks allocated. This option does not account for sparse files (files with holes in them). Accept data from the command (see ncheck(1M)) as input. Run the pipeline: to produce a list of all files and their owners. Report on users. This is the default action. Display three columns containing the number of blocks not accessed in the last 30, 60, and 90 days. Echo the completed command line, but perform no other action. The command line is generated by incorporating the user-specified options and other information derived from This option allows the user to verify the command line. If the options specified are valid, the completed command line is echoed. If the options specified are not valid, an error message is printed. AUTHOR
