Hi Stef,

On AIX, there is more than just excluding NFS and /proc.

In fact, you just want JFS and JFS2 vfs types.  All other (procfs, nfs, 
cifs, etc) should not be checked with df at all for 2 reasons:

- You will hang the df command if the remote host is not responding
- Only jfs/jfs2 are usefull.

Personnaly, what I do is the following (I'm sure there could be 
other/better methods):

In the file  /home/hobbit/client/bin/hobbitclient-aix.sh

################################################################################
# Change to remove NFS and CIFS filesystems
#df -Ik | sed -e '/^[^  ][^     ]*$/{
df -Ik `mount | awk '$3~/jfs/ {printf $2 " "}'` | sed -e '/^[^  ][^ ]*$/{
################################################################################

Hi,

The df output on AIX includes also /proc and nfs mounted file systems.  I 
exclude them with
df -Ik | grep -v "/proc" | grep -v ":/"

Excluding /proc is easy, but the only way I found to exclude nfs file 
systems 
is excluding the lines with :/ in it ......

Can someone else with an aix box confirm that this is ok ?
