grep -i adding $logdir | grep -iv equation | awk '{print \$NF}' | sort -u | sed -e 's/\.\$//' > /tmp/t1


Looks like to me this is searching for lines of data in the $logdir that contain the word "adding" but does not contain the word "equation" then awk it searching those results for the number of fields, sort, sorts then and sed is looking to remove any \. or $ from that data, then its all getting written to a file in /tmp

I could be wrong though, I just started scripting a month ago Smilie

AMTOC(8)						  System Administration Commands						  AMTOC(8)

NAME
amtoc - generate TOC (Table Of Contents) for an Amanda run SYNOPSIS
amtoc [-a] [-i] [-t] [-f file] [-s subs] [-w] [--] logfile DESCRIPTION
Amtoc generates a table of contents for an Amanda run. It's a perl script (if you don't have perl, install it first!). OPTIONS
-a The output file name will be label-of-the-tape.toc in the same directory as logfile. -i Display help about amtoc. -t Generate the output in tabular form. -f file Write the output to a file ('-' for stdout). -s subs Evaluate the output file name from subs, with $_ set to label-of-the-tape. The -a option is equivalent to -s 's/$_/.toc/'. -w Separate tapes with form-feeds and display blank lines before totals. -- Marks the last option so the next parameter is the logfile. logfile (use '-' for stdin) OUTPUT FORMAT
The standard output has five fields separated by two spaces: # Server:/partition date level size[Kb] 0 daily-05: 19991005 - - 1 cuisun15:/cuisun15/home 19991005 1 96 2 cuinfs:/export/dentiste 19991005 1 96 ... 103 cuisg11:/ 19991005 0 4139136 103 total: - - 16716288 In tabular format (-t), this would look like: # Server:/partition date lev size[Kb] 0 daily-05: 19991005 - - 1 cuisun15:/cuisun15/home 19991005 1 96 2 cuinfs:/export/dentiste 19991005 1 96 ... 103 cuisg11:/ 19991005 0 4139136 103 total: - - 16716288 USAGE
The easiest way to use it is to run amtoc right after amdump in the cron job: amdump daily ; logdir=`amgetconf daily logdir` ; log=`ls -1t $logdir/log.*.[0-9] | head -1` ; amtoc -a $log which will generate /usr/local/etc/amanda//daily/tape_label.toc. You may also want to call amtoc after an amflush. SEE ALSO
