====== Working with Storage ======

To check storage space usage, type:

<code>
# df -h
</code>

This utility will show a table explaining how much space has been used in your storage devices and partitions as well as how much is remaining. **-h** prints values in //human// format, for more details, see the man page:

<code>
# man df
</code>


If you want to know how large a directory is, you can find out with //du//:

<code>
# du -sk /usr/pkg
</code>

The //-s// option asks for the sum or total space used. The //-k// option causes the result to be shown in kilobytes (instead of 512-byte blocks).

For more information, like other options (**-h** for example) please refer to the man page: 
<code>
# man du
</code>
