Hi:

Sure, do the math. Actually, Bill Hassell has a very nice 'bdf' script:

right?

So you want to know about the free space in file systems?

[Grayh]

From the below forum I have the script 48368.null... Now how to run this script is the issue...

Totston... You are correct... It is related to my other thread...may be for my future reference...

To make sure that there is no confusition caused... I have opened a new thread..

[Adam W.]

well how about assigning some points for those of us who have taken time out of our day to post something helpful? Too many people not giving out points these days.

I have fond the below in one of the links provided and it worked great directly copy,pasting at the command line

#bdf | awk '/^Filesystem/ {next;}; NF>1 && $NF!="/"{datotal+=$(NF-2)/(10
24*1024);printf("%10s %9d kbytes available \n", substr($NF,2), $(NF-2));}END {pr
int "Total available ", datotal, "gigabytes"}' | sort -nr -k2,2

# t "Total available ", datotal, "gigabytes"}' | sort -nr -k2,2
usr 49515144 kbytes available
data 42356606 kbytes available
var 6769232 kbytes available
opt 5017400 kbytes available
tmp 4997160 kbytes available
stand 1671872 kbytes available
home 783093 kbytes available
Total available 105.963 gigabytes


Now after allocation space to the filesystems.. Is there a way to check the Total remaining unallocated space {which is not been allocated to any file system}

[Torsten.]

You already know about your 10 free PEs in vg00!

hI:

> From the below forum I have the script 48368.null... Now how to run this script is the issue...

In Bill's thread, he describes the script's usage (available options and arguments)!

If you *look* at the script you downloaded, you would see those optinos and arguments as inline documentation.

If you *run* the script like:

# ./bdfmegs -?

,,,you will see the available options and arguments.

I hope "...how to run this script?" doesn't mean that you need to arm its executable bit.

Regards!

From your other thread:

...
PE Size (Mbytes) 32
Total PE 4322
Alloc PE 4312
Free PE 10
...

320MB.

thanks everyone

To make it clear:

This is what vgdisplay (Free PE) is telling you!
