Formatting BDF output

Hello people.

First of all I googled my problem and even found answers in this forum. Unfortunatelly my problem is not solved.

When the lenght of the filesystem is too big the output of bdf wraps into another line. e.g.:

Code:
Filesystem          kbytes    used   avail %used Mounted on
/dev/vg00/lvol3    1048576  310384  732592   30% /

How do I solve this problem in order to create a nicely formated output ?

Thank you in advance.

Try:
Code:
awk 'NF==1{x=$0;next}x{$1=$1;printf x" "$0"\n";x="";next}1' file | awk '{printf "%-38s",$1;printf "%11s",$2;printf "%11s",$3;printf "%11s",$4;printf "%6s",$5;printf "  "$6"\n"}' -

Code:
awk 'NF==1{x=$0}NF>1 && !~/^\//{print x FS $0}NF>1 && /^\//{print}'

There was a previous posting about formatting bdf output

Please look at:
https://www.unix.com/shell-programmin...df-output.html
and it looks like you will just want to set the first column to 60 instead of 30.

Code:
awk 'NF==1{getline n;$0=$0 FS n}{printf("%-40s%12s%12s%12s%7s %s\n",$1,$2,$3,$4,$5,$6)}'
