How to compare floating variables , integer value expected?
I am running some commands and I am trying to get an output into a variable. I am having problem when I try to put that value in while loop, it says integer value expected. What's the best way to accomplish this


Code:
  remaining=$(symclone -sid XXX -f Clone_test query | grep MB | awk '{print $2}')
   y=1
   while [ "$remaining" -gt  "$y" ]
    do
     echo "$remaining MB's to be copied....." >> mylog
     sleep 10
   remaining=$(symclone -sid XXX -f Clone_test query | grep MB | awk '{print $2}')
    done
