16.7.2. Running virt-df

download PDF
To display file system usage for all file systems found in a disk image, enter the following:
# virt-df /dev/vg_guests/RHEL6
 Filesystem                   1K-blocks       Used  Available  Use%
 RHEL6:/dev/sda1                 101086      10233      85634   11%
 RHEL6:/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 7127864    2272744    4493036   32%
(Where /dev/vg_guests/RHEL6 is a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 guest virtual machine disk image. The path in this case is the host physical machine logical volume where this disk image is located.)
You can also use virt-df on its own to list information about all of your guest virtual machines (ie. those known to libvirt). The virt-df command recognizes some of the same options as the standard df such as -h (human-readable) and -i (show inodes instead of blocks).
virt-df also works on Windows guest virtual machines:
# virt-df -h
 Filesystem                       Size       Used  Available  Use%
 F14x64:/dev/sda1               484.2M      66.3M     392.9M   14%
 F14x64:/dev/vg_f14x64/lv_root    7.4G       3.0G       4.4G   41%
 RHEL6brewx64:/dev/sda1         484.2M      52.6M     406.6M   11%
 RHEL6brewx64:/dev/vg_rhel6brewx64/lv_root
                                 13.3G       3.4G       9.2G   26%
 Win7x32:/dev/sda1              100.0M      24.1M      75.9M   25%
 Win7x32:/dev/sda2   		 19.9G	     7.4G      12.5G   38%

Note

You can use virt-df safely on live guest virtual machines, since it only needs read-only access. However, you should not expect the numbers to be precisely the same as those from a df command running inside the guest virtual machine. This is because what is on disk will be slightly out of synch with the state of the live guest virtual machine. Nevertheless it should be a good enough approximation for analysis and monitoring purposes.
virt-df is designed to allow you to integrate the statistics into monitoring tools, databases and so on. This allows system administrators to generate reports on trends in disk usage, and alerts if a guest virtual machine is about to run out of disk space. To do this you should use the --csv option to generate machine-readable Comma-Separated-Values (CSV) output. CSV output is readable by most databases, spreadsheet software and a variety of other tools and programming languages. The raw CSV looks like the following:
# virt-df --csv WindowsGuest
 Virtual Machine,Filesystem,1K-blocks,Used,Available,Use%
 Win7x32,/dev/sda1,102396,24712,77684,24.1%
 Win7x32,/dev/sda2,20866940,7786652,13080288,37.3%
