Device Free Space

Hi,

I've tried to find answer to this question in the forums but i haven't found it.
How can i know the space left in my devices (tape, disk, floppy, etc...)?
It is very important to know at least the free space in the TAPE device.
Can someone help?

Thanx in advance.

Jorge

Try using "df" utility this will tell you the free blocks in the tape

also you can use "du" for knowing the disk usage

Cheers
JK
