# [NAME](#NAME)

snmpdf - display disk space usage on a network entity via SNMP

# [SYNOPSIS](#SYNOPSIS)

**snmpdf** \[COMMON OPTIONS] \[-Cu] \[-Ch] AGENT

# [DESCRIPTION](#DESCRIPTION)

**snmpdf** is simply a networked version of the typical df command. It checks the disk space on the remote machine by examining the HOST-RESOURCES-MIB's hrStorageTable or the UCD-SNMP-MIB's dskTable. By default, the hrStorageTable is preferred as it typically contains more information. However, the -Cu argument can be passed to snmpdf to force the usage of the dskTable.

AGENT identifies a target SNMP agent, which is instrumented to monitor the given objects. At its simplest, the AGENT specification will consist of a hostname or an IPv4 address. In this situation, the command will attempt communication with the agent, using UDP/IPv4 to port 161 of the given target host. See the [*snmpcmd(1)*](/man/os/net-snmp/snmpcmd.1) manual page for a full list of the possible formats for AGENT.

See the [*snmpd.conf(5)*](/man/os/net-snmp/snmpd.conf.5) manual page on setting up the dskTable using the *disk* directive in the snmpd.conf file.

[**COMMON OPTIONS**](#COMMON)

Please see [*snmpcmd(1)*](/man/os/net-snmp/snmpcmd.1) for a list of possible values for COMMON OPTIONS as well as their descriptions.

[**-Cu**](#Cu)

Forces the command to use dskTable in mib UCD-SNMP-MIB instead of the default to determine the storage information. Generally, the default use of hrStorageTable in mib HOST-RESOURCES-MIB is preferred because it typically contains more information.

[**-Ch**](#Ch)

Print sizes in human readable format (i.e. MiB, GiB, TiB)

[**-CH**](#CH)

Print sizes in human readable SI format (i.e. MB, GB, TB)
