Find all large files in Unix / Linux using shell prompt
August 31st, 2009
In Linux there is a problem to measure all folders and subfolders.
You can find all large files (in this example bigger 600 000 kb and from root folder) from shell prompt with command:
find / -type f -size +600000k -exec ls -l {} \; | awk '{ print $9 ": " $5 }'
