How many inodes?Helpful Member!

Is there a command that shows how many inodes on a file system are available and in use? The command "apropos" doesn't seem to shed any light...

CODE

$ apropos inode clri clri (1m) - clear inode dcopy clri (1m) - clear inode fsirand fsirand (1m) - install random inode generation numbers

BTW, this is for Solaris, but also looking for a generic *NIX solution.

I can only speak for the systems I have worked with.

see the 'df' command. df -i should report both used and free inodes.

Hope this helps

Awesome, thanks piperent. The Solaris "df" doesn't have the "-i" switch, but it does have a couple others that seem to give me what I'm looking for.

CODE
