Space used by files listed by ls -lt

Use awk to sum and print the space used by a group of files. It works well as long as the space used is not bigger than 79094548.80... I found that upper limit when trying to find out what was the total amount of recoverable space from a set of directories: user@servername:/home/user/scripts>for dirName in aleph_bin aleph_sh aleph_work dailycheck INTERFAZ ; do echo "${dirName} = $(cat /tmp/purge_ocfs_dir.*.log | awk '{sum+=$5} END {printf "%4.2f", sum}') "; done aleph_bin = 79094548.80 aleph_sh = 79094548.80 aleph_work = 79094548.80 dailycheck = 79094548.80 INTERFAZ = 79094548.80 In the worst case scenario, the total number might be almost 137G. user@servername:/home/user/scripts>df -h /ocfs/* Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on //argalephfsprod/aleph_bin$ 137G 38G 99G 28% /ocfs/aleph_bin //argalephfsprod/aleph_sh$ 137G 38G 99G 28% /ocfs/aleph_sh //argalephfsprod/aleph_work$ 280G 135G 146G 49% /ocfs/aleph_work //argalephfsprod/dailycheck$ 137G 38G 99G 28% /ocfs/dailycheck //argalephfsprod/INTERFAZ/ 137G 38G 99G 28% /ocfs/INTERFAZ Any suggestion about how to get the correct amount of space for total over 80 Mbytes?

View all new log messages in real time with color

Print every Nth line (to a maximum)

Thanks to knoppix5 for the idea :-) Print selected lines from a file or the output of a command. Usage: $ every NTH MAX [FILE] Print every NTH line (from the first MAX lines) of FILE. If FILE is omitted, stdin is used. The command simply passes the input to a sed script: $ sed -n -e "${2}q" -e "0~${1}p" ${3:-/dev/stdin} print no output $ sed -n quit after this many lines (controlled by the second parameter) $ -e "${2}q" print every NTH line (controlled by the first parameter) $ -e "0~${1}p" take input from $3 (if it exists) otherwise use /dev/stdin ${3:-/dev/stdin}

Get AWS temporary credentials ready to export based on a MFA virtual appliance

You might want to secure your AWS operations requiring to use a MFA token. But then to use API or tools, you need to pass credentials generated with a MFA token. This commands asks you for the MFA code and retrieves these credentials using AWS Cli. To print the exports, you can use: `awk '{ print "export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=\"" $1 "\"\n" "export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=\"" $2 "\"\n" "export AWS_SESSION_TOKEN=\"" $3 "\"" }'` You must adapt the command line to include: * $MFA_IDis ARN of the virtual MFA or serial number of the physical one * TTL for the credentials

tee to a file descriptor

the tee command does fine with file names, but not so much with file descriptors, such as &2 (stderr). This uses process redirection to tee to the specified descriptor. In the sample output, it's being used to tee to stderr, which is connected with the terminal, and to wc -l, which is also outputting to the terminal. The result is the output of bash --version followed by the linecount

cd into another dir to run a one-liner, but implicitly drop back to your $OLD_PWD after

Obviously the example given is necessarily simple, but this command not only saves time on the command line (saves you using "cd -" or, worse, having to type a fully qualified path if your command cd's more than once), but is vital in scripts, where I've found the behaviour of "cd -" to be a little broken at times.
