Show disk usage of file

Availability: This command is available to cluster and Vserver administrators at the admin privilege level.

Description

This command requires a path to a file in a volume and displays the following information:

  • Vserver name

  • Total bytes used by the file in kilobytes

  • Full Path to the file

If not logged in as Vserver administrator, the command also requires a Vserver name.

Note The "-instance" option provides the same result as the default as there are no extra fields to display.

| [-m ]

Examples

The following example displays the disk-usage of the file file1.txt in volume /vol/root_vs0 .

cluster1::> volume file show-disk-usage -vserver vs0 -path /vol/root_vs0/file1.txt

Vserver          Total                  Path
--------         ------                 -----
vs0              1408KB                 /vol/root_vs0/file1.txt
cluster1::> volume file show-disk-usage -m -vserver vs0 -path /vol/root_vs0/file1.txt

Vserver          Total                  Path
--------         ------                 -----
vs0              1MB                    /vol/root_vs0/file1.txt
vs0::> volume file show-disk-usage -um -path /vol/root_vs0/file1.txt

Vserver       Total             Unique              Path
--------      -----             ------              -------
vs0           1MB               1MB                 /vol/root_vs0/file1.txt
