NAME

       vos_partinfo - Reports the available and total space on a partition

SYNOPSIS

       vos partinfo -server <machine name>
           [-partition <partition name>] [-cell <cell name>]
           [-noauth] [-localauth] [-verbose] [-help]

       vos p -s <machine name> [-p <partition name>]
           [-c <cell name>] [-n] [-l] [-v] [-h]

DESCRIPTION

       The vos partinfo command reports the amount of space available and
       total size on either all of the partitions on the indicated file server
       machine (if the -partition argument is omitted) or the specified
       partition on that file server machine. The Volume Location Database
       (VLDB) is not consulted.

CAUTIONS

       Currently, the maximum size of a volume is 2 terabytes (2^31 bytes) and
       the maximum size of a /vicepX partition on a fileserver is also 2
       terabytes. The fileserver will not report an error when it has access
       to a partition larger than 2 terabytes, but it will probably fail if
       the administrator attempts to use more than 2 terabytes of space. In
       addition, there are reports of erroneous disk usage numbers when vos
       partinfo or other OpenAFS disk reporting tools are used with partitions
       larger than 2 terabytes.

OPTIONS

       -server <server name>
           Identifies the file server machine for which to display partition
           information. Provide the machine’s IP address or its host name
           (either fully qualified or using an unambiguous abbreviation). For
           details, see vos(1).

       -partition <partition name>
           Identifies which partition on the file server machine specified by
           the -server argument for which to display information. Provide the
           partition’s complete name with preceding slash (for example,
           "/vicepa") or use one of the three acceptable abbreviated forms.
           For details, see vos(1).

       -cell <cell name>
           Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this
           argument with the -localauth flag. For more details, see vos(1).

       -noauth
           Assigns the unprivileged identity "anonymous" to the issuer. Do not
           combine this flag with the -localauth flag. For more details, see
           vos(1).

       -localauth
           Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local
           /etc/openafs/server/KeyFile file. The vos command interpreter
           presents it to the Volume Server and Volume Location Server during
           mutual authentication. Do not combine this flag with the -cell
           argument or -noauth flag. For more details, see vos(1).

       -verbose
           Produces on the standard output stream a detailed trace of the
           command’s execution. If this argument is omitted, only warnings and
           error messages appear.

       -help
           Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options
           are ignored.

CAUTIONS

       The partition-related statistics in this command’s output do not always
       agree with the corresponding values in the output of the standard UNIX
       df command. The statistics reported by this command can be up to five
       minutes old, because the Cache Manager polls the File Server for
       partition information at that frequency. Also, on some operating
       systems, the df command’s report of partition size includes reserved
       space not included in this command’s calculation, and so is likely to
       be about 10% larger.

OUTPUT

       The output reports the amount of space available and total space for
       each specified partition.

EXAMPLES

       The following command displays all partitions on the file server
       machine "fs2.abc.com".

          % vos partinfo fs2.abc.com
          Free space on partition /vicepa: 27301 K blocks out of total 549197
          Free space on partition /vicepb: 13646 K blocks out of total 69194
          Free space on partition /vicepc: 31798 K blocks out of total 320315
          Free space on partition /vicepd: 33302 K blocks out of total 494954
