Short on diskspace? You can use ‘du’ to find largest files in your linux server using ‘du’ tool.
du --total -sh /path/*
Additionally you can also include a ‘threshold’ parameter to list only file larger than the unit which you’ve specified, by using “-t” parameter.
Example, list files larger than 100MB
du --total -sh -t100M /path/*
You can use “M” for megabytes, “G” for gigabytes and “P” for Petabytes. Positive number denotes files must be at least the specified size. Negative number means the files must be at most the specified size.
