Works for me, I get line counts here. You could see if changing the field numbers in the awk script would improve things (change $1 to $2 perhaps) but I highly doubt it will.

sorry for the confusion..i got it ... thanks again

xargs: a single arg was greater than the max arglist size of 2048 characters

How can i resolve this error..

find /data/XYZ -mtime -7 -name 'DailyFile*.txt' -print | xargs wc ...

How wc will be identify the list of record.if we are writing the below line entire records in the folder is getting displayed.Can you please tell me how to handle this means i need last 7 days record.Again the "xargs: a single arg was greater than the max arglist size of 2048 characters".becoz i need the MB GB info also in my csv file


wc /data/XYZ/Daily_File*.txt | nawk -v OFS=, '{ print $4, $1, $3 }'

any solution for this ....??

The xargs error message means that there is a single file name which is longer than 2048 bytes. This is a very low limit for ARG_MAX but not unheard of. If you can cd into the directory and then use relative file names, that might be an acceptable workaround.

I don't understand "How [will] wc identify the list of record"
