Operating Systems Solaris Check free disk space in server Post 302999813 by joeyg on Wednesday 28th of June 2017 09:44:22 AM

Unsure what you mean by trying to find free space.
It may include:
1) space assigned to a volume group and available for file storage
2) space on the physical disk(s) that has not yet been assigned

Another way to think about this is a minivan with removable seats.
1) You are driving and there are four seats installed; meaning three seats available. But, there is space with no seats installed!!!
2) You are driving with a friend and there are all seven seats now installed; meaning you have five seats available.

SD_GET_SEATS(3) 						   sd_get_seats 						   SD_GET_SEATS(3)

NAME
sd_get_seats, sd_get_sessions, sd_get_uids - Determine available seats, sessions and logged in users SYNOPSIS
#include <systemd/sd-login.h> int sd_get_seats(char*** seats); int sd_get_sessions(char*** sessions); int sd_get_uids(char*** sessions); DESCRIPTION
sd_get_seats() may be used to determine all currently available local seats. Returns a NULL terminated array of seat identifiers. The returned array and all strings it references need to be freed with the libc free(3) call after use. Note that instead of an empty array NULL may be returned and should be considered equivalent to an empty array. Similar, sd_get_sessions() may be used to determine all current login sessions. Similar, sd_get_uids() may be used to determine all Unix users who currently have login sessions. RETURN VALUE
On success sd_get_seats(), sd_get_sessions() and sd_get_uids() return the number of entries in the arrays. On failure, these calls return a negative errno-style error code. NOTES
The sd_get_seats(), sd_get_sessions() and sd_get_uids() interfaces are available as shared library, which can be compiled and linked to with the libsystemd-login pkg-config(1) file. SEE ALSO
