Shell Scripts Monitoring Disk Space Utilization

Nothing special. Just a simple shell scripts, could be served as an introduction of Unix Shell scripts programming, written to check disk space utilization of Linux (applicable to Unix too) filesystems or partitions.

Note! Ignore the left most numeric digits which are not part of the Shell scripts coding. These are line number indicators, which could be turned on in Vi editor using the :set nu command code.

It might be useful to comment out line 14th and remove the hash key on line 15th, which disable echo alert to console and enable alerts emailed to mail box. Configure Linux scheduler via the crontab -e to run this shell scripts, perhaps once a day, and get system administrators alarmed of critical free disk space before the system comes to halt.
