UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

Hi,

I need to put a script working to see in a directory with logs if exists file or files with size more than 12Mb.
If exists it shoul send mail.

Can anyone help me?

thanks

Code:

FILES=`find . -type f -size +23999 -print`
if [[ -n "${FILES}" ]]; then
     echo "Hey, I found some files larger than 12 MB!" |\
     mail -s 'Files > 12 MB found!' you@domain.org
else
     echo "Nothing of interest found."
fi

exit 0

Hi, thanks for you help.

Tell me another thing, the 23999 value i supose is the same as 12Mb?
How this values appears?

Sorry for my newbie questions?

-size n[c] True if the file is n blocks long (512 bytes
per block). If n is followed by a c, the
size is in bytes.


If you want to print the files with size more than 12MB(12582912 bytes) , use the below command:

find . -type f -size +12582912c -print

"+" sign for files more than 12mb and "-" sign for files less than 12 MB.
