Every time you encounter a server disk full, will be very distressed, but with the following two ways to easily find the machine in the large files,

The first type: Du-sh

• du -shThe size of the next file or directory in the current directory:
• du -sh *Show the top 10 most space-occupying files or directories:
• Du-s * | Sort-nr | Head

Explanation:-s option specifies that each subdirectory or file is not displayed in detail for the directory size; -H easy-to-read format displays the size of the specified directory or file

Second type: Find command (-size)

A. Find 1K files in/directory, there are three ways:

1. Find/-size 2
2. Find/-size 1024c
3. Find/-size 1K

B. Find files larger than 500M in/directory

Find/-size +500m

Release: The default unit is B, and it represents 512 bytes, so 2 means 1k,1m is 2048, if you do not want to convert, you can use other units, such as C, K, M, G, the inside of the + is greater than equals, the opposite-is less than equal, using the above two methods can easily find the disk of large files, Be sure to use it flexibly.
