du by default displays all directories and subdirectories recursively, and displays a number of bytes. The -s option tells it to only display the total for the outer directory, and the -h option puts it in human readable format (ie 1.0K instead of 1000).
Hi there,
When I run top on my machine it says I have 497M swap space in use, and 380M swap space free,
but I have only allocated 512M swap space to the machine!!!!
Does anyone know how swap used is calculated in the top command?
Thanks... (1 Reply)

Hey guys,
I am somewhat new to Solaris - and very new when it comes to mounts.
My problem is that when I installed Solaris, I allocated way too little diskspace to my / mount (it first became obvious now, however, because of new needs).

du
DU(1) FSF DU(1)NAME
du - estimate file space usage
SYNOPSIS
du [OPTION]... [FILE]...
DESCRIPTION
Summarize disk usage of each FILE, recursively for directories.
Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.
-a, --all
write counts for all files, not just directories
-B, --block-size=SIZE use SIZE-byte blocks
-b, --bytes
print size in bytes
-c, --total
produce a grand total
-D, --dereference-args
dereference FILEs that are symbolic links
-h, --human-readable
print sizes in human readable format (e.g., 1K 234M 2G)
-H, --si
likewise, but use powers of 1000 not 1024
-k like --block-size=1K
-l, --count-links
count sizes many times if hard linked
-L, --dereference
dereference all symbolic links
-S, --separate-dirs
do not include size of subdirectories
-s, --summarize
display only a total for each argument
-x, --one-file-system
skip directories on different filesystems
-X FILE, --exclude-from=FILE
Exclude files that match any pattern in FILE.
--exclude=PATTERN Exclude files that match PATTERN.
--max-depth=N
print the total for a directory (or file, with --all) only if it is N or fewer levels below the command line argument;
--max-depth=0 is the same as --summarize
--help display this help and exit
--version
output version information and exit
SIZE may be (or may be an integer optionally followed by) one of following: kB 1000, K 1024, MB 1,000,000, M 1,048,576, and so on for G, T,
P, E, Z, Y.
PATTERNS
PATTERN is a shell pattern (not a regular expression). The pattern ? matches any one character, whereas * matches any string (composed of
zero, one or multiple characters). For example, *.o will match any files whose names end in .o. Therefore, the command
du --exclude='*.o'
will skip all files and subdirectories ending in .o (including the file .o itself).
