i got the octal number but when i did a cat "ocatal number".. its not opening the file
Code:
tci001wasd02 $ cat '\006'
cat: 0652-050 Cannot open \006.
tci001wasd02 $ cat "\006"
cat: 0652-050 Cannot open \006.
As of the other method, i got the inum and ran the find command.
But it is giving an error as
Code:
tci001wasd02 $ ls -i
20519
tci001wasd02 $ find . -inum 20519 -exec cat{} \;
find: 0652-083 Cannot execute cat{}:: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.

Hi All,
These are the two ways i tried to read file but i getting work with second one not with the first.

Hi,
Data file named parameter contains :
DB=y
Alter_def.sql
Create_abc.sql
SQL=y
database.sql
my_data.sql
To read this file I use
var_sql=$(awk -F= '$1 == "SQL" { print $2 }' parameter.txt)
if
then
sql_f_name=`grep "\.sql" parameter.txt`
echo $sql_f_name

Hi,
I am reading a file line by line using read line function of while loop. Each line contains 4 fields. I want to take these 4 values in 4 variables in each iteration so that i can use them in my script. The issue here is that my awk command is returning awkward results -

bup-margin
bup-margin(1) General Commands Manual bup-margin(1)NAME
bup-margin - figure out your deduplication safety margin
SYNOPSIS
bup margin [options...]
DESCRIPTION
bup margin iterates through all objects in your bup repository, calculating the largest number of prefix bits shared between any two
entries. This number, n, identifies the longest subset of SHA-1 you could use and still encounter a collision between your object ids.
For example, one system that was tested had a collection of 11 million objects (70 GB), and bup margin returned 45. That means a 46-bit
hash would be sufficient to avoid all collisions among that set of objects; each object in that repository could be uniquely identified by
its first 46 bits.
The number of bits needed seems to increase by about 1 or 2 for every doubling of the number of objects. Since SHA-1 hashes have 160 bits,
that leaves 115 bits of margin. Of course, because SHA-1 hashes are essentially random, it's theoretically possible to use many more bits
with far fewer objects.
If you're paranoid about the possibility of SHA-1 collisions, you can monitor your repository by running bup margin occasionally to see if
you're getting dangerously close to 160 bits.
OPTIONS --predict
Guess the offset into each index file where a particular object will appear, and report the maximum deviation of the correct answer
from the guess. This is potentially useful for tuning an interpolation search algorithm.
--ignore-midx
don't use .midx files, use only .idx files. This is only really useful when used with --predict.
EXAMPLE
$ bup margin
Reading indexes: 100.00% (1612581/1612581), done.
40
40 matching prefix bits
1.94 bits per doubling
120 bits (61.86 doublings) remaining
4.19338e+18 times larger is possible
Everyone on earth could have 625878182 data sets
like yours, all in one repository, and we would
expect 1 object collision.
$ bup margin --predict
PackIdxList: using 1 index.
Reading indexes: 100.00% (1612581/1612581), done.
