NAME
df - report free disk space on file systems
SYNOPSIS
df [-a] [-i] [-t type] [filesystem . . . ] [filename . . . ]
DESCRIPTION
df displays the amount of disk space occupied by currently mounted file
systems, the amount of used and available space, and how much of the file
system's total capacity has been used. Used without arguments, df
reports on all mounted file systems, producing something like:
Filesystem kbytes used avail capacity Mounted on
/dev/root 7445 4714 1986 70% /
/dev/0s10 5148 3279 1868 64% /stand
Note that used+avail is less than the amount of space in the file system
(kbytes); this is because the system reserves a fraction of the space in
the file system to allow its file system allocation routines to work
well. The amount reserved is typically about 10%; this may be adjusted
using tunefs(1M). When all the space on a file system except for this
reserve is in use, only the super-user can allocate new files and data
blocks to existing files. When a file system is overallocated in this
way, df may report that the file system is more than 100% utilized.
If arguments to df are disk partitions (for example, /dev/root or
pathnames, df produces a report on the file system containing the named
file. Thus df . shows the amount of space on the file system containing
the current directory.
Options
The options for df are as follows:
-a Reports on all filesystems including the uninteresting ones which
have zero total blocks. (For example, automounter)
-i Report the number of used and free inodes.
-t type
Report on filesystems of a given type (for example, nfs or 4.2).
FILES
/etc/mtab List of filesystems currently mounted.
