Check Disk Usage Linux: df Command Guide
You can use the df command to check the disk space usage in a Linux system. This command displays the filesystem usage, including used space, available space, and used percentage.
Here are some commonly used options for the df command:
- -h: Display disk space size in a human-readable format.
- -T: Display the file system type.
- -i: Display the usage of inodes.
- Show all file systems, including system reserved file systems.
To display the disk space usage of all file systems, you can open the terminal and enter the following command:
df -h
This will display the disk space usage of each file system, including the total size, used space, available space, and mount point.
To view the disk space usage of a specific file system, you can specify the mount point of the file system as a parameter. For example, to check the usage of the root file system, you can enter the following command:
df -h /
This will display the disk space usage of the root file system.
