grep in sub-dirs

[panchpan]

Hello.
1) Do we have some option with grep command so that we could search in current directory and all its sub-directories/files?

2) How to find out the ownername of a filesystem on HP-UX?
3) Do we need to delete and recreate filesystem IF I want to change the allocated space or owner?

Thank you!

1) Use find: find /start_dir -exec grep -l "string" {} \;

2) Use ll with the -d option: ll -d /mountpoint

3) Unless you have online jfs, changes to size would require re-creation. Changes in ownership can be accomplished using "chmod".

Hi,
1. combine grep with find
find . -exec grep -name *.lis {} \;
Can be resource/process hungry.

2. Directories, but not file systems have owners.
ll (3rd colum indicates owner of file/directory)

3. Use SAM to extend filesystem.
Look under "Disks and FileSystems"

But, no, you do not have to delete filesystems to expand. To change the ownership you can use chmod.
See "man chmod" for details.
