df -h is the best way and it is bit easy to calculate space:
for example:
Filesystem size used avail capacity Mounted on
1st disk:
/dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0 962M 81M 823M 9% /
/dev/dsk/c0t0d0s6 2.9G 1.2G 1.7G 42% /usr
/dev/dsk/c0t0d0s3 962M 56M 848M 7% /var
/dev/dsk/c0t0d0s5 962M 187M 717M 21% /opt
/dev/dsk/c0t0d0s7 1.9G 566M 1.3G 30% /export/home
2nd disk:
/dev/dsk/c0t1d0s7 8.4G 9K 8.3G 1% /export/home0
3rd disk:
/dev/dsk/c1t3d0s7 17G 974M 15G 6% /export/home1
this is from sparc system , you will get something similar to this.
The options listed above will work, but if you have unmounted or "free" disk space it will not be displayed by this option. The df command only displays statistics on created and mounted filesystems.
Another way would be to use the format command then view the partition table to see availble as well as used space on the disk.
If you just want to see if your filesystems are filling up -
df -h
that is the way to go, the -h option is kind of a joke, the "h" stands for human meaning that a human can actually understand the results that are returned.
