How to check files with more then 1MB in a filesystem.

Thanks in advance

you can use something like this:-
find / -type f -size +100000 -exec ll {} \;

[Dennis Handly]

$ find /path -xdev -size +1000000c

[G V R Shankar]

find /path -size +1000000c -xdev -exec ls -ld {} \;

I have used ls -ld, instead of ll, because if the directory file is above 1 MB, it will list all the file iunder the directory, to avoid confusion it is better to use ls -ld.

Cheers,
Ravi.

hi,

You may also wish to sort them so that the largest file comes first:

find . -size +1000000c -xdev -exec ls -ld {} \; |sort +4 -5nr


hope this helps too!
kind regards

find -xdev -type f -size +1024 -exec ls -l {} \;| awk '{print $9, $5}'|sort -rn +1|awk '{print $1, $2/1024/1024 "MB"}' |more


Note: this will give you list of all files bigger than 1 MB in sorted order with Bigest file first. Listing will be showing filename and size in MB.

cheers...

>Samir: ... -size +1024

These are not the droids (option) you want. ;-)

What you have is > 1024 blocks. And blocks is the useless value 512. :-(

That's why most answers used +1000000c.
