bdf output in megabytes on 11.23

[Steven Richards]

Hi,

I found a really useful script on the forums that produced all my bdf output into nice columns and into megabytes for HPUX 11.00 and 11.11, but this doesn't seem to work on Itanium 11.23, has anyone got a script that'll do this for 11.23?

Your time and help are much appreciated.

Are you talking about the bdfmegs script? If so, what errors are you getting? I have just put bdfmegs on an 11.23 PI (PA-RISC) and it works fine.

Can you post the output from the command?

[Steven Richards]

Yes, I believe it is called bdfmegs. Is there a version for 11.23 Itanium?

[I setup link called bdfm as I couldn't be bothered to type bdfmegs everytime!]

I haven't tried it on 11.23, but here is bdfmegs (attached). You might want to re-install.

Sorry - don't have an Itanium to test on - add a set -x to the top of the script and post the output if you can...

If bdfmegs script - it uses df to get mount point sizes...

When you say it doesn't seem to work, what exactly is it doing differently (or not doing)?

[Steven Richards]

Apologies if I was being a bit vague.

It would appear my version of bdfmegs was a bit out of date, I used the version pete attached and it works no problem, although I do get a strange line of zero's, sometimes in the middle, sometimes at the end, but I can live with that.

My version was hanging on the Itanium servers in the middle of the listing and I would have to 'ctrl-c' to end it. Whatever caused this obviously got fixed in the more recent version.

Thanks for all your help.

If you are interested, I have modified a version of bdfmegs so that it prints the output in GB instead of MB.

It is attached and called bdfg.

Patrick,

Thank you, much appreciated.

Steve.
