how to calculate the file space usage of every account?


hi!

I got a problem.

Our storage spool is full.
Almost 500 IO node(s),
Every IO node have about 10TB capacity of storage.
My boss want me to get this information:
Who used how many capacity of storage.

So I need a software or script to help me,
to calculate the file space usage of every account(user).

like this:
For I/O node number 1:
user:tom,usage:1000MB
user:lee,usage:3000MB

Is there anyone can help?

(forgive my poor English,please)

well sounds like you should be using quota's in the first place, but if your accounts are all under /home/ then just run "du -h --max-depth=1 /home" and that will give you the size of each /home/user directory.

If your system actually uses quota, you can try the repquota command to retrieve information about the filesystem usage of each user.
