20. Maintenance tools
20.1 Filesystems
20.1.1 df - Available disk space
User: htuser
Command: df -h
Sample output:
Checks: Use% column and Avail column.
Thresholds: 90% use or more is not OK. Less than 2G of available disk space in /, /var/backup, /slides,
/var/applicative_data/vms or /logs is not OK
When a disk space problem is detected, the first question is: What takes up this disk space ? The answer
can be either large files or a large number of files.
20.1.2 du - Used disk space
User: htuser
Command: du –Lx | sort -n
Sample output (extract):
Checks: For each subdirectory listed in the last lines of the result, check the files present in this directory with
“ls –l <subdirectory>”. Look for core dumps, large files or large number of files. Find out how these files
were created / filled (owner, name and eventual naming scheme, location).
