find the 5o largest files in a directory
I'm trying to find the 50 largest file in a directory named /sasdb and its' subdirectories. I'm using the find command and a pipe to awk
Not sure if I'm actually getting the largest files from this directory and its subdirectories. Here is the code I used... find /sasdb -ls | awk '{print $0}' | sort -n >> my.lst tail -50 my.lst >> largest_files.lst Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank You

you first approach should be fine, just that you should check $0 , i don't think its the size. but pls do check. Code:
find /home/test -type f -ls | awk '{print $7}' | sort -n | tail -50
