hello friends,
i have written query to show the disk space usage of sum directories

below one is my script

#!/bin/ksh

CURR_DAY=`date +%m%d%Y_%H%M%S`
touch Daily1.txt
function ds

{

echo " Allocated Used Free %Used Directory" > Daily1.txt
df -h /home/vfuser | grep -iv Filesystem | grep -iv vol >> Daily1.txt
df -h /home/vfuser/review | grep -iv Filesystem | grep -iv vol >> Daily1.txt
df -h /home/vfuser/transfer | grep -iv Filesystem | grep -iv vol >> Daily1.txt

}




echo ">>>> Disk space Info">> Daily1.txt
ds

echo ">>>> Please Take Necessary Action Immediately if any of the disk space crosses more than 70% \n">>Daily1.txt
echo "--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n">> Daily1.txt

echo " Thanks & Regards, \n ">>Daily1.txt
echo " abc Operation Support \n ">>Daily1.txt

echp "--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n">>Daily.txt


cat Daily1.txt
mail -s "abc Reporting FILES ZIPPED Status On ${CURR_DAY} " abc@gmail.com < /home/vfuser/Daily1.txt

rm Daily1.txt

and the out of this is

Allocated Used Free %Used Directory
9.9G 1.8G 7.6G 20% /home/vfuser
5.0G 1.7G 3.4G 33% /home/vfuser/review
65G 49G 17G 76% /home/vfuser/transfer
>>>> Please Take Necessary Action Immediately if any of the disk space crosses more than 70% \n

Adding -e to your echo commands will allow you to used escaped options to format your text.

as an example, \t will give you a tab, \n will give you a newline.

The rest can be found here: http://www.mkssoftware.com/docs/man1/echo.1.asp

HI fukawi1
i tried ur script by using -e command it was giving proper space between two columns.

but my acquirement was the out was to be displayed a proper table with proper boarders.

Thanks advance,

You can essentially fabricate the border in your echo commands.

I have demonstrated this very crudely, you would work things out so there the number of top and bottom border characters worked out to an even number of tabs.

There may be more eloquent ways of doing this, but this method should work.
