on Solaris, the command is df -k, which shows your patition size(k bytes), the amount that is used (k bytes) and the percentage used. this answer may be a red herring however, because for example if you partition is an Oracle filesystem which has been configured to allow the database to grow only to within the limit of the filesystem itself, then the filesystem will show as 100% full and you would only really see the size used within the applicaion itself.

Kind Regards

dfspace command gives the diskspace interms of Megabytes & in percentage of total diskspace. The command df -ivt gives more information about the disk space
