calculate usage from file

[learnbash]

Hello folks,

i have a file courierimapuiddb that have contents like


1 1280206508 4
1 1280206466.V805I169cM853838.xxx
2 1280207962.V805I16d5M343672.xxx
3 1280208055.V805I16d6M20816.xxx



1280206508 above means total size and its decreasing when file added in directory. when total size utilization >= 90% then i got notification that you have how many percent left space. It will read from first line to last line to get how much percent left.

I want to check above things under below all directories where that file "courierimapuiddb" exist.


/directory/name/


thanks.

Did I understand you correctly, you want to find all files inside a particular directory which are called "courierimapuiddb"? If so, just `cd' into that directory and there you can run:


find -name 'courierimapuiddb'


If you want to know how much space a directory uses, you may also use:

du -h --max-depth=0 /directory/name


Finally, you can also see how much free space the partition inside which a directory resides has using:

df -h /directory/name


I hope some of this helps. If not, I fear you'll have to explain your problem in a more detailed way.
