Sar -F

Display filesystems usage statistics for currently mounted filesystems. Pseudo-filesystems are ignored. At the end of the report, sar will display a summary of all those filesystems. Use of the MOUNT parameter keyword indicates that mountpoint will be reported instead of filesystem device. Note that filesystems statistics depend on sadc option -S XDISK to be collected.

• sar -F
• sar -F --human
• for i in `ls /var/log/sysstat/sa??`; do sar -f $i -F --human; done

To activate it: sadc option in /etc/sysstat/sysstat -S XDISK or -S XALL activated.
