Display Paticular Mount point


Hi All,

I am new to Linux enviornment.

Can you please share the command to list a paticular mount
Example:

Suppose if we want to display files of Sarat - We will do like below
ls -ltr Sara*
In the same can we display mount points like this?
df /ias/*

Running df on its own shows all the mount points.

If /ias is a mount point then you can run df /ias to show only the ias mount point information.

If you want to know which mount point a directory/file belongs to you can do the following: df /path/to/file_directory

Do not use the * (df /ias/*), this will expand to all files and/or dirs in /ias/.

Thank you for the reply

Sorry I didn't frame my question properly here - I just want to list mount point which starts with /ias/*

The output should come like below - Is there any command to query like below

/ias/a006/oradata/M503
/ias/a013/oradata/M500
/ias/a007/oradata/M501

Are you sure that you are using the correct terminology?

A mount point is a single directory which is used to mount a partition. Asking for a list of mount points that start with /ias doesn't make sense.

If there are any mount points inside /ias you can do the following: mount | grep "ias"

Makes perfect sense. The fact that a mount point is a single directory doesn't mean it can't exist within an other directory.

This is 100% true.

I'm not saying that you cannot have mount points (deep) inside a directory structure, I myself have mount points inside another mount point.

I am however not sure if the question asked by the OP makes sense. Can we assume that M503, M500 and M501 are mount points? Are there other directories at the same location (say M300 and M199) which aren't mount points?

Anyway: mount | grep "ias" will show all mount points that have /ias in their name/path.

X341-/XXXX/w001/export_541: df -h

But i want to disply only the /ias mount point - Is there any command to list only /ias mount points like the below

It seems that the M<number> entries are the only ones that reside in /ias.

Give this a try:
Code:
df -Ph | grep "ias"
I used an extra flag for df (the P flag), this to make sure the output is on one line and not on two.

You're welcome

BTW: can you put up the [SOLVED] tag (in the upper right corner or the Thread Tools menu).
