Shell Programming and Scripting

Hello venkitesh,

I had assumed that there are no spaces between digit values of a filesystem and GB/TB strings as I saw discrepancy in your very first Input_file, so if you do not have space between filesystem's values and TB/GB strings this command should run then. Let me know if you have any queries on same.

Thanks,
R. Singh

If you look at the links at the bottom left of this page (under "More UNIX and Linux Forum Topics You Might Find Helpful"), you might find very useful hints. For instance, this post applied to your problem in post#1 immediately yields

Code:

Folder Name  Total space  Space used	percent
/test/test1   500.1GB       112.0GB	 22.40%
/test/test2   3.2TB          5TB	 156.25%
/test/test3   3TB              100GB	 3.26%

It requires that numbers and units NOT be separated by spaces, though. 5TB used on a 3.2TB disk is quite ambitious, isn't it?
Searching these fora may yield further proposals and hints...
