I have 2 questions:
1- How did you learn bash scripting so well?
2- I have to look at the whole /var/log/wtmp files. There are so many of them and I have to add them to one file but I can't Smilie this is what I did:
Code:
# Check for existing /tmp/tst folder
if [ "/tmp/tst" != "" ]; then
rm -rf /tmp/tst
# Make a directory in /tmp called tst
mkdir -p /tmp/tst
# Copy wtmp files in /tmp/tst folder and unzip them:
cp -f /var/log/wtmp* /tmp/tst/
fi
bzip2 -d /tmp/tst/wtmp-*.bz2 | last -f wtmp-* > wtmpfile
cat wtmpfile

Then I have to add all the logged time of my users together and give a total as output. In your script you just used "last" command. which gives you only information from present machine not all other servers on the network.
correct me if I am wrong....

xfs_estimate(8) 					      System Manager's Manual						   xfs_estimate(8)

NAME
xfs_estimate - estimate the space that an XFS filesystem will take SYNOPSIS
xfs_estimate [ -h? ] [ -b blocksize ] [ -i logsize ] [ -e logsize ] [ -v ] directory ... DESCRIPTION
For each directory argument, xfs_estimate estimates the space that directory would take if it were copied to an XFS filesystem. xfs_esti- mate does not cross mount points. The following definitions are used: KB = *1024 MB = *1024*1024 GB = *1024*1024*1024 The xfs_estimate options are: -b blocksize Use blocksize instead of the default blocksize of 4096 bytes. The modifier k can be used after the number to indicate multiplica- tion by 1024. For example, xfs_estimate -b 64k / requests an estimate of the space required by the directory / on an XFS filesystem using a blocksize of 64K (65536) bytes. -v Display more information, formatted. -h Display usage message. -? Display usage message. -i, -e logsize Use logsize instead of the default log size of 1000 blocks. -i refers to an internal log, while -e refers to an external log. The modifiers k or m can be used after the number to indicate multiplication by 1024 or 1048576, respectively. For example, xfs_estimate -i 1m / requests an estimate of the space required by the directory / on an XFS filesystem using an internal log of 1 megabyte. EXAMPLES
% xfs_estimate -e 10m /var/tmp /var/tmp will take about 4.2 megabytes with the external log using 2560 blocks or about 10.0 megabytes % xfs_estimate -v -e 10m /var/tmp directory bsize blocks megabytes logsize /var/tmp 4096 792 4.0MB 10485760 % xfs_estimate -v /var/tmp directory bsize blocks megabytes logsize /var/tmp 4096 3352 14.0MB 10485760 % xfs_estimate /var/tmp /var/tmp will take about 14.0 megabytes xfs_estimate(8)
