I need to know the available space in my unix. when making a df -k it shows me the following thing:

/dev/vx/dsk/emc2/vol06
136764867 121542767 1545614 99% /emc06

would need them to explain to me well the command. since under the column avail the resulting value is not the difference of the fields kbytes and used.

Hi,
please use the option df -hk

The option h means human readable format.(Available sins Solaris 9)

and use the man df for more information!

regards joerg

its to be read as:
first column shows mountpath, second is total allocated diskspace, second is used diskspace, third is available diskspace, fourth is a measure of how high a percentage of the total diskspace is currently in use (99% percent is very much), fifth is the mountpoint of this lines counts.


Was this the explanation you were looking for?
