df command on older AIX version can u upgrade to show Gigs

[jpn1]

I have many AIX servers ranging from 4.3.3.3 to 6.1. I always hate looking at the disks on the older boxes because I have to translate the 512 blocks or 1024 blocks to gigs. Where as the new servers have the df -g. Is there a way to upgrade the df command on the older servers to display GigaBytes?

There is no supported way to upgrade the AIX df command on earlier versions to support function from a later version. If you can install GNU coreutils which contains df then you could install a "lowest common denominator" level of it to all your machines.

In Kb then divide by 1024 and divide by 1024.

df -k | awk -v i=0 '{i+=int($3); print ( $1 "\t" $7 "\t" ($3/1024) " mb " "\t" (i/1024)/1024 " gb");}'

Hi,

There is a little mistake ... You can try this :

df -k | awk -v i=0 '{i+=int($3); print ( $1 "\t" $7 "\t" ($3/1024) " mb " "\t" ($3/1024)/1024 " gb");}'
