Hi have a system running solaris with a mount point running 58% capacity used, but unfortunately when I type
in a specific directory, it returns:
. I suspect there are millions of files in this directory.
So what I did is to create a script like this:
The script apparently runs, because does not return any error, but the free space on that subdir does not increase, or nothing appears to change.
You want to see how many files are on the filesystem and how many free inodes (file slots). This bypasses all directories. Your directory is either "broken" which means it is fsck time, or your directory has waaay too many entries.

A ufs filesystem becomes exponentially slow with the number of files per directory.
As a rule of thumb, do not have more than 10000 files per directory!
If this is Solaris 10, zfs would be the better alternative for such a work load.
Your method works, and can be augmented with a -ls to show what's being deleted.
Terminate the -exec rm with a +, that reduces the numbers of forks, i.e. is more efficient. In effect it does rm file1 file2 file3 ... rather than rm file1; rm file2; rm file3; .... rm might prompt in certain conditions when it sees a terminal. rm -f prevents it.

Hi
I am unable to find files, those are present anywhere in the same directory tree, based on the creation date. I need to find the files with their path, as I need to create them in another location and move them. I need some help with a script that may do the job.
Please help (2 Replies)
