Thanks for the feedback and option, Though being very new this that code is a bit over my head so I'm currently Dissecting it right now to try and get a better understanding as to what exactly is going on piece by piece.

So if i have this correct for the 1st part you could create a file like SV.fil in the same directory with code such as:

Code:
$ cat svctl
user@server1
user@server2
user@server3
user@server4

I get that the cat command is simply stating "Read the following Contents" what is the "svctl" all about?

Next it appears you are starting a while loop that's reading that SV.fil that would have to be in the same directory in the loop it appears you have created 2 Arrays "read FILESZ1[++CNT] read FILESZ2[CNT]", which i'm guessing the "++" increments it, though why is that not in "FILESZ2[CNT]" ? Did I not understand that portion correctly?

The rest of it look self explanatory iterating through the servers collecting the file size of each file adding them to each array (yet then there's that svctl again?)

Once this line has been executed I then have 2 Arrays in which I can simply use functions to compare all values and give outputs Smilie

Sorry I'm new and this scripting, and appreciate you taking the time Smilie

--user administrative user associated for the instance. --password administrative password corresponding to the administrative user. --host host name of the machine hosting the administrative instance. --port administrative port number associated with the administrative host. --sysuser owner of the domain directory. --domain name of the domain. --local determines if the command should delegate the request to administrative instance or run locally. --passwordfile file containing passwords appropriate for the command (e.g., administrative instance). --secure if true, uses SSL/TLS to communicate with the administrative instance. --instanceport port where the instance listens for requests. OPERANDS
instance_name name of the instance to be created. Example 1: Using create-instance in local mode asadmin> create-instance --domain domain1 --instanceport 8967 --sysuser adminuser server4 Created Instance server4 successfully Where: the server4 instance is created under the domain1 domain. Example 2: Using create-instance in remote mode asadmin> create-instance --sysuser adminuser --user admin --password adminadmin --host localhost --port 4848 --instanceport 8967 server4 Created Instance server4 successfully Where: the server4 instance is created on the remote server for the associated user, password, host, and port.
