Disk space

Use the bdf command to display the space available in kilobytes. Compare the available disk space information from your machine to the required disk space requirements.

Here is sample output from a bdf command on an HP-UX system:

Filesystem        kbytes    used      avail    %used   Mounted on

/dev/vg03/LVM3    2035601   1464104   367936   80%     /work3

The “avail” column shows the amount of disk space available on each file system.
