Hello,
I have a IRIX server at work. When other engineers were deleting masses of
data from the disks, the disk free (df -h) command showed no difference to
the amount of free space.
Having checked the directory in question I think there are multiple hard
links pointing to the data..
server 17# ls -l
total 552
drwxrwxr-x 3 root it 66 Jul 17 2002 GREEN = DVD
-rwxrw-rw- 1 evagorou user 12292 Mar 21 17:56 .DS_Store
drwxrwxr-x 2 root it 49 Dec 12 09:07 .HSResource
-rw-rw-rw- 1 root it 256500 Mar 21 14:44 .HSancillary
-rwxrwxr-x 1 root it 0 Jul 29 1998 .HSicon
drwxrwxrwx 5 root sys 78 Apr 15 15:47 BAT.2723.1
drwxrwxrwx 8 root sys 121 Jan 9 15:29 BAT.2734.1
drwxrwxrwx 8 root sys 121 Jan 9 15:30 BAT.2752.1
drwxrwxrwx 8 root sys 121 Jan 13 09:36 BAT.2783.1
drwxrwxrwx 8 root sys 139 Mar 17 16:39 BAT.2797.1.12122002a
drwxrwxr-x 24 root it 4096 Aug 21 2002 No data
drwxrwxrwx 20 remy user 4096 Feb 19 13:20 Storage
drwxrwxrwx 5 evagorou sys 72 Mar 4 11:29 Temporary Items
server 18#
Am I right in saying the number after the permission bits are the number
of hard links associated?
What command can I run to see which other files are linked to this data,
so I can correctly delete the data.
Thanks.
