let's take a look at some tools to keep an eye on disk usage.
|

|
|
||||||
### du
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`du` (short for `d`isk `u`sage) is the go-to tool.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
common switches include:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* `-h`: human readable
|
|
||||||
* `-s`: summarize
|
|
||||||
* `-c`: total
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
example:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
to see the disk usage of the current directory, run:
|
|
||||||
du -sh
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
check the manpage for more information and additional switches
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### ncdu
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`ncdu` (short for `nc`urses `d`isk `u`sage) is extremely useful for visualizing
|
|
||||||
disk usage.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
call `ncdu` with no args to recurse starting in the current directory or
|
|
||||||
pass a dir name to start there
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
try it on your `$HOME` and see which files and dirs are taking up the most
|
|
||||||
space.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
press `?` to see additional keybinds once you've started it up. you can change
|
|
||||||
the sort order, open a shell, and delete files without closing the program.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### df
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`df` (short for `d`isk `f`ree) lists mounted disks with usage, free space,
|
|
||||||
and capacity. try it out from your shell to get a quick glance at total
|
|
||||||
disk usage
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
don't forget to use `-h` to get human readable units.

### quota

run `quota` to see your current usage and grace period (if you're over).
