[rhn-users] File Management

[Michael Ezell]

I like to use df -k to see how much disk space is taken/free in
kilobytes.

And I use du -sh * to see how much space each subdirectory is using.

Returns this in the /var/ directory :

4.0K    account
1.7M    cache
4.0K    db
8.0K    empty
289M    lib
4.0K    local
8.0K    lock
135M    log
0       mail
16K     named
4.0K    nis
4.0K    opt
4.0K    preserve
128K    run
7.8M    spool
4.0K    tmp
4.0K    tux
1.2M    webmin
1.9M    www
4.0K    yp

And /usr/

92M     bin
4.0K    dict
4.0K    etc
4.0K    games
19M     include
166M    java
80M     java.tar
4.2M    kerberos
399M    lib
55M     libexec
305M    local
20M     sbin
364M    share
56K     src
0       tmp
12M     X11R6

Thanks Jon.

Is there any way to tell which files are on which hard disk?

I do not miss the Window's viruses, but I do miss the Window's file
management system that showed me a clear picture of which files were on
each hard disk and how much space each disk had remaining.

Are there any Linux distributions that have this feature?

Mike
