I have created a script to clear up the /var filesystem once it reaches > 90%.
This is part of the script :
To test if this script works, I execute the command in the terminal (only to clear one of the filesystems above). However it seemed to run for an extremely long time. Therefore I sensed that something could be wrong with the statements I used - perhaps the for loop?
These are the steps I executed :
Are the above steps correct? Why does the command run for a long time?

Here's my problem: the $1 parameter is getting permanently set when you dot-run a script - and I cannot unset it.
Here's how to duplicate the problem:
1) Create a script called testme and put this simple command in the script:
echo 1=$1
Save the script
2) Make the testme script... (12 Replies)
I'd like to create a cron script that checks filesystems. For example if it reaches 95% USED, I'd like it to send me an email. Can this be possible for up to say 4 filesystems using the df -k command? Any samples to get me started would be much appreciated. (7 Replies)

diff
DIFF(1) General Commands Manual DIFF(1)NAME
diff - print differences between two files
SYNOPSIS
diff [-c | -e | -C n] [-br]file1 file2
OPTIONS -C n Produce output that contains n lines of context
-b Ignore white space when comparing
-c Produce output that contains three lines of context
-e Produce an ed-script to convert file1 into file2
-r Apply diff recursively to files and directories of
EXAMPLES
diff file1 file2 # Print differences between 2 files
diff -C 0 file1 file2
# Same as above
diff -C 3 file1 file2
# Output three lines of context with every
diff -c file1 file2 # Same
diff /etc /dev # Compares recursively the directories /etc and /dev
diff passwd /etc # Compares ./passwd to /etc/passwd
DESCRIPTION
the same name, when file1 and file2 are both directories" difference encountered"
Diff compares two files and generates a list of lines telling how the two files differ. Lines may not be longer than 128 characters. If
the two arguments on the command line are both directories, diff recursively steps through all subdirectories comparing files of the same
name. If a file name is found only in one directory, a diagnostic message is written to stdout. A file that is of either block special,
character special or FIFO special type, cannot be compared to any other file. On the other hand, if there is one directory and one file
given on the command line, diff tries to compare the file with the same name as file in the directory directory.
