How to trace the big files causing high disk usage

Hi All,

One very urgent issue and I need your help.

I have two V490 servers installed with Sun Solaris 10.

I have traced out that the disk usage is running out of space for both the servers. Currently the /dev/md/dsk/d10 device is 91% in one server and another is 56% and it is increasing very rapidly. In the last 3 days both of them has been increase 8-10%.

/ partition is mounted on the /dev/md/dsk/d10.


I want to trace out the files which are unnecessarily blocking the disk usage.

How can I do it?

Thanks in Advance

Nilanjan

NAME
gnome-disk-image-mounter - Attach and mount disk images SYNOPSIS
gnome-disk-image-mounter [--writable] [URI...] DESCRIPTION
gnome-disk-image-mounter can be used to set up disk images. Both regular files and GVfs URIs (such as smb://filer/media/file.iso) can be used in the URI parameter. If no URIs are given and a window server is running, a graphical file chooser will be presented. Note that gnome-disk-image-mounter will not mount filesystems or unlock encrypted volumes in the disk image - this responsibility is left to the automounter in GNOME Shell to ensure that the same interactions happen as if the disk image was a regular physical device or disc. By default the disk images are attached read-only, use the option --writable to change this. RETURN VALUE
gnome-disk-image-mounter returns 0 on success and non-zero on failure. AUTHOR
