Compress all INACTIVE Files
Hi gurus,
I have a batch job running daily night automatically. The job produces file with extension '.0' like a.0, b.0 etc.
Now due to file space constraints, most of the time, the job fails with insufficient disk space and then we have to manually start the job again and keep running the gzip/compress command on all the *.0 files (to compress them and make way for more files) which are not used by the backup job.
Now can you please help me in creating the shell script for this.
All I want my script to do this -
1. Fuser .0 one by one.
2. If the file is active then proceed with next .0 file.
3. If the file is not active (I mean if fuser does not report any process locking the file) then run the compress in background.
Pls. help
Thanks

globus-job-clean
GLOBUS-JOB-CLEAN(1) GRAM5 Commands GLOBUS-JOB-CLEAN(1)
NAME
globus-job-clean - Cancel and clean up a GRAM batch job
SYNOPSIS
globus-job-clean [-r RESOURCE | -resource RESOURCE]
[-f | -force] [-q | -quiet] JOBID
globus-job-clean [-help] [-usage] [-version] [-versions]
DESCRIPTION
The globus-job-clean program cancels the job named by JOBID if it is still running, and then removes any cached files on the GRAM service
node related to that job. In order to do the file clean up, it submits a job which removes the cache files. By default this cleanup job is
submitted to the default GRAM resource running on the same host as the job. This behavior can be controlled by specifying a resource
manager contact string as the parameter to the -r or -resource option.
By default, globus-job-clean prompts the user prior to canceling the job. This behavior can be overridden by specifying the -f or -force
command-line options.
OPTIONS
The full set of options to globus-job-clean are:
-help, -usage
Display a help message to standard error and exit.
-version
Display the software version of the globus-job-clean program to standard output.
-version
Display the software version of the globus-job-clean program including DiRT information to standard output.
-resource RESOURCE, -r RESOURCE
Submit the clean-up job to the resource named by RESOURCE instead of the default GRAM service on the same host as the job contact.
-force, -f
Do not prompt to confirm job cancel and clean-up.
-quiet, -q
Do not print diagnostics for succesful clean-up. Implies -f
ENVIRONMENT
If the following variables affect the execution of globus-job-clean.
X509_USER_PROXY
Path to proxy credential.
X509_CERT_DIR
Path to trusted certificate directory.
