df

NAME

df - display free disk space

SYNOPSIS 

df [-akP] [-T type] | [[file ...] [filesystem ...]]

DESCRIPTION

The df(1) utility displays statistics about the amount of free disk space on the specified filesystem or on the file system of which file is a part. Values are displayed in 512-byte per block block counts. If neither a file nor a file system operand is specified, df(1) displays statistics for drives C through Z. (The df(1) utility reports on drives /A and /B if they are specified as operands, however.)

OPTIONS

-a
Report statistics on all drives, /A through /Z.
-k
Blocks are in counts of 1024 bytes (one kilobyte) instead of 512 bytes.
-P
Prevent the display of the Type column in the output. This is the portable output format specified in the POSIX.2 standard.
-T type
Print only statistics for file systems of the specified type. The recognized types are:
all
All file system types.
cdfs
CD-ROM file system.
fat
File Allocation Table file system (such as on MS-DOS partitions).
hpfs
File system used by OS/2.
NFS
Network File System. A remote file system developed by SUN Microsystems for UNIX.
ntfs
File system used by Windows NT, Windows 2000, and Windows XP.
ofs
Object File System.
samba
Networked SAMBA file system.

This option is ignored if either file or filesystem is specified.

Typical output is:

$ df
Filesystem			 512-blocks	 Used Available Capacity Type  Mounted on
/Harddisk0/Partition1	 3169088  1691069   1478019	53%   ntfs  /C

/MORGAN/VSC_suites		2491713  2308884	182829	93%   ntfs  /W




$ df -kP /D
Filesystem  1024-blocks	 Used Available Capacity Mounted on
/CdRom0		542660   542660		 0   100%   /D
The columns are:
Filesystem
The path name of the file system.
512-blocks
Number of blocks in the file system. With the -k option, these blocks are 1024-bytes, not 512.
Used
Number of blocks currently in use.
Available
Number of blocks available.
Capacity
Current usage expressed as a percentage.
Type
The type of the file system. This can be any of the values acceptable as arguments to the -T option, or ??? if the file system type is unknown.
Mounted on
The file system's mount point.
