storage space

[satish]

Dear Erman,

Do we have any command in linux which gives us the space allocated to storage for a server.we want to calculate the storage space assigned to database server.df -h does,but any other command which will do the job

Thank you

If you will check it from OS ->  use "df" or "du" , you can also use fdisk.

If you will check it from Storage (SAN or NAS) -> use storage utilities.

Dear Erman,

Thanks for the update.

If i issue  fdisk -l and compare it to the df -h output,there was a big difference.could you please let me know is this command fdisk -l is right?

It is normal.
fdisk shows the actual disk and partition sizes..
It is a long story.
Please read some documents.. All the info about fdisk, df and du is publically avaiable.
