linux 中检查磁盘空间的 12 个有用的 df 命令

[root@local ~]# df

Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/cciss/c0d0p2     78361192  23185840  51130588  32% /
/dev/cciss/c0d0p5     24797380  22273432   1243972  95% /home
/dev/cciss/c0d0p3     29753588  25503792   2713984  91% /data
/dev/cciss/c0d0p1       295561     21531    258770   8% /boot
tmpfs                   257476         0    257476   0% /dev/shm
Copy after login

2. Display disk space usage information of all file systems

Same as above, but it also displays information about the virtual file system and all file system disk usage and its memory usage.

[root@local ~]# df -a

Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/cciss/c0d0p2     78361192  23186116  51130312  32% /
proc                         0         0         0   -  /proc
sysfs                        0         0         0   -  /sys

Copy after login

3. Display disk space usage in human-readable format

Have you noticed that the above command displays information in bytes, which is not readable at all, because we are used to reading sizes in megabytes, gigabytes, etc., which is easy to understand and remember.

This df command provides an option to display dimensions in Human Readable format by using '-h' (print the result in human readable format ( For example, 1K 2M 3G)).

[root@local ~]# df -h

Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/cciss/c0d0p2      75G   23G   49G  32% /
/dev/cciss/c0d0p5      24G   22G  1.2G  95% /home
/dev/cciss/c0d0p3      29G   25G  2.6G  91% /data
/dev/cciss/c0d0p1     289M   22M  253M   8% /boot
tmpfs                 252M     0  252M   0% /dev/shm
Copy after login

4. Display /home file system information

View unique device information/homeUse the following command for the file system in human-readable format.

[root@local ~]# df -hT /home

Filesystem  Type    Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/cciss/c0d0p5 ext3     24G   22G  1.2G  95% /home
Copy after login

5. Display file system information in bytes

Display all file system information and usage 1024-byte blocks, use option '-k' (e.g. --block-size=1K) as follows.

[root@local ~]# df -k

Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/cciss/c0d0p2     78361192  23187212  51129216  32% /
/dev/cciss/c0d0p5     24797380  22273432   1243972  95% /home

/dev/cciss/c0d0p1       295561     21531    258770   8% /boot
tmpfs                   257476         0    257476   0% /dev/shm
Copy after login

6. Display file system information in MB units

9. 显示文件系统类型

如果您注意到上述所有命令输出,您将看到结果中没有提到Linux 文件系统类型。要检查系统的文件系统类型,请使用选项 T。它将显示文件系统类型以及其他信息。

[root@local ~]# df -T

Filesystem  Type   1K-blocks  Used      Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/cciss/c0d0p2 ext3    78361192  23188812  51127616  32%   /

10. 包括某些文件系统类型

如果要显示某些文件系统类型,请使用 -t 选项。例如下面的命令只会显示ext3文件系统。

[root@local ~]# df -t ext3

11. 排除某些文件系统类型

如果要显示不属于的文件系统类型ext3键入使用选项作为 -x。例如,以下命令将只显示除ext3.

[root@local ~]# df -x ext3
