What is the above line supposed to do?
Where you trying to do this?
Code:
cat SUM_OF_FILES.txt   |   awk '/^-/ {total += $5} END {printf "%15.2f\n",total}'
 
or may be this
 
awk '/^-/ {total += $5} END {printf "%15.2f\n",total}' SUM_OF_FILES.txt

Cannot go through you description.
Just post what does the file SUM_OF_FILES.txt contain.
As you use >>, I presume you must be having more than one line in it.
first of all thanx for your replying,

With that line i want to fetch the last SUM value from SUM_OF_FILES.txt where I just want to save the monthly SUM results (but its not a must). In this txt file there will be each months sum results like
1515.45
1735.33
..
And as u said there will be many lines like above after appending each months sum to the txt file with ">>" so im not sure if awk can fetch the last line data from .txt file? if it's not possible then its not necessary to append monthly results to a new line. The worse I dont know how to use the last month's SUM ($a) in a comparison loop, thats poor that i coudlnt write a correct comparison loop Smilie

im sorry i forgot to tell very important point, im removing the back up files monthly from under the directory in which i wanna calculate the size of files under this directory. So assume that every month new backup data will be under the directory where i wanna use the script.

BDB.DB0(5)							AFS File Reference							BDB.DB0(5)

NAME
bdb.DB0, bdb.DBSYS1 - Contain the Backup Database and associated log DESCRIPTION
The bdb.DB0 file contains the Backup Database, which records configuration information used by the AFS Backup System along with cross- indexed records of the tapes created and volumes dumped using the Backup System commands. The bdb.DBSYS1 file is a log file in which the Backup Server (buserver process) logs each database operation before performing it. When an operation is interrupted, the Backup Server replays the log to complete the operation. Both files are in binary format and reside in the /var/lib/openafs/db directory on each database server machine that runs the Backup Server. When the Backup Server starts or restarts on a given machine, it establishes a connection with its peers and verifies that its copy of the bdb.DB0 file matches the copy on the other database server machines. If not, the Backup Servers use AFS's distributed database technology, Ubik, to distribute to all of the machines the copy of the database with the highest version number. Use the commands in the backup suite to administer the Backup Database. It is advisable to create a backup copy of the bdb.DB0 file on tape on a regular basis, using the UNIX tar command or another local disk backup utility. SEE ALSO
