I'm setting up a logging script to track utilization on our deployed systems. I'm running it every minute using cron. Each time it runs, I get an entry in /var/log/messages telling me it ran. That is a lot of useless information. Is there a way to prevent the creation of these log entries?

For each message, I went to the "Message" tab and clicked on "move to folder." The folder heading on the top left indicates that there are 30 messages in that folder, BUT NO MESSAGES ARE APPEARING.
View 2 Replies View RelatedAnyways, I recently got into the whole HTPC scene, and picked up an Acer Revo for my self, with a media center OS (XBMC) that was apparently modded from Ubuntu. Keep in mind that I can only use the terminal for any of this, as the GUI is just for video settings, etc.
So, XBMC just totally crashed on me, and the GUI stopped working. The files were still there, I just couldn't watch them. After many hours of tinkering, I decided to just reinstall XBMC, but make two partitions, and then move my movies and stuff to the new, working partition, and afterwards, delete the old, non working one.
I just don't know how to move from one partition to another.
So, can someone explain, in absolute layman terms, how to move my "Movies" folder from my first partition, to the New one?
In my bash script I need to move files in a folder if it is not in use.
Code:
for entry in `ls /root/shared_storage/input`; do
echo $entry
run=`lsof /root/shared_storage/input/$entry`
ru=${run:0:5}
echo $entry
if [ "$ru" == "" ]; then
........
It worked fine sometimes but sometimes it just get stuck at lsof. Is there any other way that I can use here to check if the $entry is using some other process?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm running out of disk space in root, so I decide to move /usr/lib64 directory to other partition by creating moving the whole directory to new location and create a softlink in the old location. What I'm planning to do is:
1. Copy the whole directory to new location
2. Make sure if there's no problem in the copy process
3. Create a softlink in the old location pointing to the new location.
However, when I'm comparing the old location and the new location using du command, there's some discrepancies between those two where the new location contain bigger size than the old one. How is this possible?
Is this the proper way to save disk space by creating a softlink?

I'm trying to move font files (.ttf and .otf) from the download folder to a folder Inkscape can find them in. I tried dragging and dropping them in Dolphin but I don't have permission! So tried in the terminal:
Code:

mv: cannot stat `/home/bryan/downloads/fonts/*.*tf': No such file or directory
As far as I can tell the directories exist.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI installed Ubuntu Maverick as a file within Windows XP. A folder was created called Ubuntu and two files called wubildr and wubildr.mbr appeared on my C-Drive. The Windows boot.ini file looks like this code...
The initial 8 GB I gave to Ubuntu is too small and I would like to move the file to my D-Drive and expand it to 40 GB.
I would hate to have to begin again from scratch. Is this possible? If so, how?
Many years ago, I converted a portion of my files to an arbitrary format with a specific extension. i no longer desire to have them in this format and i would like begin the process of replacing them because conversion is not an appropriate solution. unfortunately, they are mixed in separate folders of the same root folder with files in my current format of a different extension. I feel it would make this process easier if I were to move every folder that contained a file with the undesired format to a separate root folder. The files are stored on a Linux server and shared via samba. How can I do this with a couple of commands or a script? I am open to other suggestions as well. I want to avoid time spent editing text files. Ultimately, I'd like a command that produced a list of full paths for folders, sorted by the number of levels would be a nice touch. A list of all of the files is clearly not what I'm looking for.
View 2 Replies View RelatedTerribly new to Linux and find it mindboggling. I work on brain imaging and unfortunately all of the analysis runs on Linux, and I do not understand computers well coming as I do from a medical background. So my question - There are various folders of patient MRI scans (folders called P1, P2, P3 etc) and within them are enclosed certain files that I am interested in (always called the same name in all folders, say image001). I would like a script that enables me to copy and move this image001 in all these individual folders to another folder altogether.
View 13 Replies View RelatedI have an email server running postfix and popa3d under Debian. I have mailboxes in mbox (single file) format per user in /var/mail/username. I had my own mailbox get too many messages so popa3d refused to process per a compiled in security / anti-DOS limit, so I moved to /var/mail/username_bak. What is the best way to start moving the messages from /var/mail/username_bak to /var/mail/username? I do not see any utilities included with postfix or popa3d that do this, but I am hoping there are generic mbox utilities to easily do this.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to move a folder to another folder but I just want to merge the two folders.
For example,
say I have Folder B which has the following files in it
- fileA
- fileB
- fileC
Folder A has the following files in it
- fileA
- fileB
- fileC
- fileD
- fileE
And I want to move folder A to folder B.
The objective here is to ensure that existing fileA, fileB and fileC are not replaced but fileD and fileE are to be copied across.
Is there an easier way to do this in linux?

Here is the deal: On my windows drive I have a folder that is filled with folders inside folders packed full of files in all the folders. There is a 100% possibility that I have multiple copies of any file in multiple locations. Is there any nice command or program to move all the files in all the folders to one central folder and in any way get rid of the multiple copies? Also, how do I compare to files that may or may not have the same name, but otherwise be identical to see if they are identical?
