( Check Memory hard Drive usage information SSH commands in Linux Server )
Login to your server using SSH.
Run command to get information about memory usages.
# free -m
It will show you output like this:
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 24013 23461 551 0 214 21855
-/+ buffers/cache: 1391 22621
Swap: 12063 0 12063
Use the following command to check usages of Hard Drive and partitions:
# df -h
It will show you output like this:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/vg-root 904G 69G 790G 8% /
tmpfs 12G 0 12G 0% /dev/shm
/dev/sda1 243M 31M 200M 14% /boot
/dev/mapper/vg-tmp 1008M 34M 924M 4% /tmp
If you’d like to see the usage volume of a particular partition (ie, “/home”), use the following command:
# du -sh /home/
It will show you the usage in Gigabytes (or in Megabytes if usage is below 1 GB)
If you’d like to view the directory size in a particular partition (ie, “/home”):
# du -sh /home/*
The above will show you the size of all the directories in that partition.
Hi there, just wanted to mention, I loved this post.
It was practical. Keep on posting!
