You can check your Purdue Career Account quota in one of two ways. You can log into an EAS Linux machine and run the `quota` command. Or you can log in to https://www.purdue.edu/apps/ics/a/Account and click "Click here to check your account space."

Often, it is not clear what directories are using up a large portion of disk space - either on your Purdue Career Account home directory, or on hypocenter. The `du -h` command provides information about file sizes, and `du -sh` gives the sum for a directory. However, this is often not as granular as you need.

The `find` command can be used to get more detail about where the space is being used. For example, you can see the total usage of your current working directory by typing:

     du -sh 

This will give you the total usage of the directory you are in. By adding the * shell glob, you can get the sum of each file and directory inside your current directory:

     du -sh *

In order to see only the directories, you'll need to use the following:

     find . -type d -maxdepth 1 -exec du -sh {} \;

This will give you the size of each directory in your current directory. You can increase the "-maxdepth" option to see more levels of directories (For example, a maxdepth of 1 will show the 'www', directory, but a maxdepth of 2 will show 'www/images', and 'www/cgi-bin').
