How to check the disk usage of a particular user by using commands in solaris 9 & 8 .?

Question

I do have mutilple users created in solaris box i need to know all of the guys usage of disk space.

Answer 1

I know in Linux the command du -h will show disk usage. If all of the files owned by the user are in the user's home directory, then you should be able to go to /home/%username% and do a du -h and see how much space they are using.

du -h may not work on solaris. Try using 'man du' to see what options are available for du (disk usage). The -h means 'human readable'. It may be something like -M or -K for megabytes or kilobytes.
