As Jim Mcnamara there is no concept of "capacity of a folder" in Unix or GNU/Linux. For starters Unix and GNU/Linux has directories not folders. And unlike Windows/DOS FAT12 or FAT16 there is no inherent limitation on the number of files in a directory. Unless you are using quotas (and generally only large organizations use quotas) the best you can do is determine the capacity of the filesystem on which the directory resides and the amount of free or allocated space on that filesystem.
So I want to make sure I am understanding this correctly....
There is no way to monitor only the size of the directory?
We have file systems that may have a few directories within them that belong to different groups so I want to be able to monitor the directories independantley. So for example if I have 3 directories....
Directory 1 Belongs to Group A
Directory 2 belongs to Group B
Directory 3 belongs to Group C
If Directory 2 fills beyond 80% of its capacity I do not want Group A and C to have to check their directories when we know its not theirs thats filling things up.
i've gone through the sun docs as well as a Solaris Network Admin book.
while the book is fair, it lacks detail and i'm sure there are things it's missing on getting a caching only name server working.
as for the sun docs... what it has is really miserable. i can't make anything out of it.

Hello everybody, is a very simple question how can I increase the capacity of a disk wich is on a DS4300?, I have done the procedure on the Storage Manager but the space is the same on the AIX (5.3) , what should I do to obtain the new ammount of disk space? (16 Replies)
Good morning.
I have been attempting to find a way to monitor the capacity of a directory so that when it reaches 80% or higher I can send an event.
I was able to find a script that does this for the whole drive by I can not seem to figure out how to do this for just a single directory.

Hello,
I hired a coder a couple weeks ago to develop 3 small modules for a popular CMS. I created Github repos for each module so as to manage the code and allow others to download it at will.
The CMS in question is structured in such a way that each module is housed in its own... (2 Replies)

icapd(1M)icapd(1M)NAME
icapd - Instant Capacity (iCAP) daemon.
SYNOPSIS
icapd
DESCRIPTION
The (formerly ) daemon is installed and started as part of the Instant Capacity software on all potential iCAP systems, and respawns itself
if killed. If this daemon is not running, other Instant Capacity commands fail. The operations this daemon performs are vital in keeping
the complexwide view of the Instant Capacity state current. The following entry is added to /etc/inittab in order to have start and
respawn itself:
icap:23456:respawn:/usr/lbin/icapd # Instant Capacity daemon
This daemon is not started on hardware that is not supported under the Instant Capacity program. If is installed and running on a system
with Instant Capacity components present (cores, cells, or memory), it sends daily asset report email to HP (if so configured), tracks tem-
porary capacity, sends exception notifications, and maintains a healthy Instant Capacity state.
For more information about the functions that performs for Instant Capacity systems, see the located at /usr/share/doc/icapUserGuide.pdf.
The daemon reports errors via (see syslog(3C)). Exception notification email is sent to root and to the system contact email address (con-
figured via the command (see icapmodify(1M)).
The daemon performs periodic operations based on the time of day. The daemon is spawned by and gets its time zone specification from the
/etc/default/tz file. By default, the time zone specified in /etc/default/tz is EST5EDT. You can specify which time zone the daemon uses
to interpret its current time by modifying the /etc/default/tz file. For details about the time zone format, see environ(5). A restart of
the daemon is required before the new time zone value takes effect (that is, kill the process).
