getlogLargeFiles

Locates, lists, and logs all files over 100MB in size on your system.

Logs results to $HOME/LARGEFILES-$(date -u +%b-%d-%Y).log (one log per day/UTC).

To run, first make executable: $ sudo chmod +x getlogLargeFiles.sh

Then run from current directory:

• with sudo: $ sudo ./getlogLargeFiles.sh
• or as root: # ./getlogLargeFiles.sh

To list larger size files only, simply edit the "-size" parameter, for example to search for 500MB+ files, do:

find / -xdev -type f -size +500M -exec ls -lah {} \; | sort -k 3,3 -k 5rn | awk '{print $5,$3,$4,$9}' | tee $LOGFILE

Enjoy!
