Linux command--33 DF (RPM)

The function of the DF command in Linux is to check the disk space usage of the Linux server's file system. You can use this command to get information about how much space the hard disk is taking up, and how much space is left.

1. Command format:

DF [Options] [file]

2. Command function:

Specifies the free space for the disk file. If no file name is specified, all available space for the currently mounted file system will be displayed. By default, disk space is displayed in 1KB, unless the environment variable posixly_correct is specified, which is displayed in 512-byte units

3. Command parameters:

Necessary parameters:

-A All File system list

-h easy to read mode display

-H equals "-H", but the formula, 1k=1000, rather than 1k=1024

-I display inode information

-K block is 1024 bytes

-L show local file system only

-M block is 1048576 bytes

--no-sync Ignore sync command

-P output format POSIX

--sync perform the sync command before obtaining the disk information

-T File system type

Select parameters:

--block-size=< Chunk Size > specified chunk size

-t< file system type > show only disk information for selected file systems

-x< file System type > does not display disk information for the selected file system

--HELP Display Help information

--version displaying version information

4. Usage examples:

Example 1: Displaying disk usage

Command:

Tmpfs 16473212 0 16473212 0%/dev/shm

Description

The 1th column of the output list of the DF command in Linux is the pathname of the device file that represents the file system (typically the partition on the hard disk), and the 2nd column gives the number of blocks (1024 bytes) that the partition contains, and the 3rd, 4 columns indicate the number of data blocks used and available respectively. Users may be surprised that 3rd, the sum of 4 column blocks is not equal to the number of blocks in the 2nd column. This is because each of the default partitions leaves a small amount of space for the system administrator to use. The administrator can log in and leave the workspace required to resolve the problem, even when the normal user space is full. The use% column in the list represents the percentage of normal user space used, even if the number reaches 100%, and the partition still leaves room for the system administrator to use. Finally, the mounted on column represents the mount point of the file system.

Description

-H more Current disk space and usage to display in a more readable manner

The-h parameter is the same on the-H root, but at the time of the radical conversion, the capacity is converted by 1000 instead of 1024.

-K displays disk usage in units

-L shows the disk space usage of the local partition, if the server NFS the disk of the remote server, then the system displays the result after the filter NSF drive after adding-l to DF

-I displays the usage of the inode. Linux uses a pointer-like approach to managing disk space mapping. This is also a more critical application
