Collection of commands that I use often

Managing files

1. See how large a file is.

ls -lh example.txt

2. Sort files accroding to the file size

• In the current directory

du -sh .[^.]* * | sort -h

• Recursively search in the current directory, for files larger than 100MB

find . -type f -size +100M -exec du -h {} + | sort -h

3. Sort Users according the the used up space

sudo du -sh /home/* | sort -h

4. See usage of a whole file system

df -h

5. Determine the device of the directory

df -h directory_name

6. Check how much space the current directory takes up

du -sh .

docker run --gpus all -v /mnt/sda/{your_directory}:/home/{your_username} -d --name {container_name} {image_name}

2. Run docker container with gpus attached, in detach mode
