Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting How to compare if the size of the directory is more than 500MB in unix Post 302597963 by shaal89 on Monday 13th of February 2012 02:04:38 AM

i changed the command to 'du -sm' so its working..

"you are using -h option, if your directory size goes to 1 to 29 GB, then the above command will fail. Because you are checking it for MB and we are removing the human readable format in the end ( M or G or K )"

i dont understand this.. Sorry..

FS_LISTQUOTA(1) 					       AFS Command Reference						   FS_LISTQUOTA(1)

NAME
fs_listquota - Displays quota information for a volume SYNOPSIS
fs listquota [-path <dir/file path>+] [-human] [-help] fs listq [-p <dir/file path>+] [-hu] [-he] fs lq [-p <dir/file path>+] [-hu] [-he] DESCRIPTION
The fs listquota command displays information about the volume containing each specified directory or file (its name, quota, and amount of disk space used), along with an indicator of the percentage of space used on the host partition. To display more information about the host partition, use the fs examine command. To set volume quota, use the fs setquota or fs setvol command. CAUTIONS
Currently, the maximum size of a volume is 2 terabytes (2^31 bytes). OPTIONS
-path <dir/file path>+ Names a file or directory that resides in the volume about which to produce output. Partial pathnames are interpreted relative to the current working directory, which is also the default value if this argument is omitted. -human Print space in a "human-readable" format. Instead of always printing space in kilobytes, show disk space in kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes, terabytes, or petabytes, as appropriate. -help Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored. OUTPUT
The output displays information about the volume that houses each specified directory or file, in a tabular format that uses the following headers: Volume Name The name of the volume. Quota The volume's quota in kilobytes, or the string "no limit" to indicate an unlimited quota. Used The amount of space used. If -human is not specified, this value is in kilobytes. % Used The percentage of the volume's quota that is used (the "Used" statistic divided by the "Quota" statistic, times 100). Partition The percentage of space used on the partition that houses the volume. Although not directly related to how much of the user's quota is used, it is reported because a full partition can cause writing of data back to the volume to fail even when the volume has not reached its quota. EXAMPLES
The following example shows the output for the volume "user.smith": % fs listquota -path /afs/abc.com/usr/smith Volume Name Quota Used % Used Partition user.smith 15000 5071 34% 86% PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
The issuer must have the "r" (read) permission on the ACL of the root directory of the volume that houses the file or directory named by the -path argument, and "l" (list) permission on the ACL of each directory that precedes it in the pathname. SEE ALSO
