Compare list [ names and size files ]
Hello,

I've downloaded a huge amont of files

I've got a list of files from a remote server.

Code:
-rw-r--r-- 1 str661 strem 453465260 Dec 16 15:54 SATRYS2V1_20021218_temp_bias.nc
-rw-r--r-- 1 str661 strem  17669468 Dec 16 18:01 SATRYS2V1_20021225_hdyn_bias.nc
-rw-r--r-- 1 str661 strem 453465248 Dec 16 18:01 SATRYS2V1_20021225_sali_bias.nc
-rw-r--r-- 1 str661 strem 453465260 Dec 16 18:01 SATRYS2V1_20021225_temp_bias.nc

I've got also the same list

Code:
-rw-r--r--   1 mar_stl marsstr  453465260 Dec 16 15:54 SATRYS2V1_20021218_temp_bias.nc
-rw-r--r--   1 mar_stl marsstr  17669468 Dec 16 18:01 SATRYS2V1_20021225_hdyn_bias.nc
-rw-r--r--   1 mar_stl marsstr  453465248 Dec 16 18:01 SATRYS2V1_20021225_sali_bias.nc
-rw-r--r--   1 mar_stl marsstr  453465260 Dec 16 18:01 SATRYS2V1_20021225_temp_bias.nc

I need help to found a way to compare name files and size and see if there is any difference. The idea is to be sure the size of each file are exacly the same.

Thanks for your help

Try

Code:
while read j1 j2 j3 j4 size j5 j6 j7 file
do
  if [ -s "$file" ] && [ "$(wc -c < "$file")" -eq "$size" ];
  then
    echo $file: ok
  else
    echo $file: nok
  fi
done < file

Dear michaelrozar17,

your line code is correct and seems fine ... but, do thinks it will be possible to add that

: if the file is correct print the file name ? ... like this

Code:
Correct :  SATRYS2V1_20021218_temp_bias.nc

on this way it will be more esay for me to make a report ..

so far here what I am getting :

Code:
Difference: SATRYS2V1_20030101_hdyn_bias.nc

Thanks

If your requirement matches with michaelrozar17, then my solution wont work. so please ignore.

BTW, I assumed that you have the remote file list in a file. and the files you want to compare are present locally.

I see that you have mentioned "list" for both which I didn't see.

Dear anchal_khare,

I made a file list from the remote sever and another file list with what I have on local.

I 've moved of list on my temporary directory to compare both of the list.

I believed your script compare a list file made on the remote server and compare with what I have on the directory. If is this way how works the code, I will try anyway. I want to say thansk a lot for your help, and in other way make your work as help to anyone that will try to do the same thnigs I am doing.

Just change not-equal-to to equal-to operator.
Code:
awk 'NR==FNR{a[$NF]=$5;next}(a[$NF]==$5){print "Correct: " $NF}' localfile remotefile > outfile
