# parrot\_lsalloc(1)

list current status of a space allocation

## NAME

**parrot\_lsalloc** - list current status of a space allocation

## SYNOPSIS

FCparrot\_lsalloc \[path\]FT

## DESCRIPTION

FCparrot\_lsallocFT examines a given directory, determines if it is contained within a space allocation, and then displays the allocation size and the current usage. As the name suggests, the command only runs correctly inside of the Parrot virtual file system, on file servers where space allocation is enabled.

The **path** argument gives the directory to examine. If none is given, the current directory is assumed.

## OPTIONS

- **-h**

  Show help text.

## EXIT STATUS

On success, returns zero.  On failure, returns non-zero. If the command is attempted on a filesystem that does not support space allocation, it will give the following error:

```

```

-

  parrot\_lsalloc: This filesystem does not support allocations.

## EXAMPLES

To list a space allocation on a Chirp server:

```

```

-

  % parrot\_run bash % cd /chirp/myserver.somewhere.edu % parrot\_lsalloc bigdir /chirp/myserver.somewhere.edu/bigdir 10 GB TOTAL 1 GB INUSE 9 GB AVAIL % exit
