Could someone tell me a command i can run on my Redhat machines to find out the physical disk size of the hard disk in the machine without having to take the disk out and look at it , this is because i have some machines that are 18/36/72/73 gig and need to know which ones they are. I have run a fdisk to show the partitions but i am unsure if all of the machines have been configured to use all of the disk so there must be a command i can run to just check this out? Any help would be much appreciated.
Fdisk tells you the size of the disk, as well as the partitions. # fdisk -l Disk /dev/sda: 72.9 GB, 72999763968 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 8875 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux /dev/sda2 14 1288 10241437+ 82 Linux swap /dev/sda3 1289 8875 60942577+ 8e Linux LVM On the first line of output it says the disk is 72.9GB. -- Nigel Wade, System Administrator, Space Plasma Physics Group, University of Leicester, Leicester, LE1 7RH, UK E-mail : nmw@xxxxxxxxxxxx Phone : +44 (0)116 2523548, Fax : +44 (0)116 2523555 -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
