Tools log_file_system clearing script
Hi
i need a script to manage the mount point for any log location (/u01/dump/log/)
i need a script which removes files older then x days but it should not remove file with extention *.log, *.ora etc
then for remaing files it must search the huge files like *.txt and do fuser <filename>
and use only files which are not in use by other process
and after filtering huge flies which are not in use by any other process
it must now do file <filename> to know that file is not compressed already and for remaing flies which are not compressed it should compress now and after compress it must rename as previous files
like
mv file_name.txt.Z file_name.txt

please let me know as soon as possible.

Thanks in advance.

faxcron

FAXCRON(8C)															       FAXCRON(8C)

NAME

       faxcron - HylaFAX routine maintenance script

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/faxcron [ -n ] [ -l lastrun ]

DESCRIPTION

       faxcron	is  a  command	script	that  does  routine upkeep tasks in a HylaFAX spooling directory hierarchy.  This script is intended to be
       invoked from cron(8C) on behalf of the fax user (often the ``fax'' user is uucp) once a day, with the standard output sent by mail  to  the
       HylaFAX administrator.  For example, the following crontab might be set up for the fax user:
	 25   23    *	 *    *   sh /usr/sbin/faxcron | mail FaxMaster

       The faxcron script does the following work:

       o  report statistics for facsimile transmitted since the last time faxcron was run.

       o  report statistics for facsimile transmitted in the past week.

       o  report statistics for facsimile received since the last time faxcron was run.

       o  report statistics for facsimile received in the past week.

       o  report any recent calls that failed suspiciously and return the associated trace log;

       o  purge data that is 30 days or older from the remote machine information directory;

       o  delete information that is 30 days or older from session trace log files;

       o  remove files from the tmp directory that are older than 1 day;

       o  remove files in the received facsimile queue that are 7 days or older;

       o  report sites that are currently having jobs rejected; and

       o  force all session log files to be owned by the fax user and kept with protection mode 644.

OPTIONS

       -n	 Forces faxcron to run without updating any files.

       -l lastrun
		 Forces  the  notion  of  the last time that faxcron was run to be lastrun.  The value of lastrun is a date and time string of the
		 form ``MM/DD/YY HH:MM'' (the date(1) format string ``%D %H:%M'').

       -info n	 Set the expiration time for data in the info database to be n days.

       -log n	 Set the expiration time for session log data to be n days.

       -rcv n	 Set the expiration time for files in the received facsimile queue to be n days.

       -tmp n	 Set the expiration time for files in the tmp directory to be n days.

       -mode m	 Set the file protection mode for session logs to m (a command line argument to chmod(1)).

NOTES

       This script requires nawk(1) or gawk(1) and a date(1) program that supports the ``+format'' option.

       If session logs are to be kept private this script must be modified to filter out sensitive information such as calling card numbers.   (It
       should also be run with ``-mode 0600'' so that session log files are not publicly readable.)

FILES

       /var/spool/fax			  spooling area
       /var/spool/fax/etc/lastrun	  timestamp of last run
       /usr/sbin/xferfaxstats		  for generating transmit statistics
       /usr/sbin/recvstats		  for generating receive statistics
       /var/spool/fax/tmp/faxcronXXXX	  temporary file for truncating session logs
       /var/spool/fax/tmp/faxlogXXXX	  temporary file for logs of failed calls
