Automating disk usage report to users

Hi,
I have our server setup as /export/home for users directories. I need help in sorting out the results of du.
Currently I use du -sk | sort -nr to get the sorted disk usage.
I want to calculate which user directory exceeds 2G.
If the directory tom exceeds 2G then mail [email protected] the size of his home directory.

Thanks,
--Walter

 

du -k | awk '{ if($1 > 2048000000) print $2 }'

Will print out all the directories that are over 2GB

curtorkar, put this script in /usr/bin/ with permissions to be executed. You can do a cronjob with it:
Configure it for your needs

Code:

#!/usr/bin/env python
import os, string, smtplib

#Configure here
path = "/home/export/"
fromaddr =  "[email protected]"
toaddrs = "[email protected]"
limit = 2*1024*1024
#No more config

dirs = os.listdir(path)

data_list = []

for dir in dirs:
	command = "du -s %s%s" % (path, dir)
	fileobject = os.popen(command)
	dataline = fileobject.read()
	fileobject.close()
	data = dataline[:-1].split("\t")
	data_list.append(data)

email_list = []

for record in data_list:
	if record[0] != "":
		if int(record[0]) > limit:
			email_list.append(record)

if email_list:
	msg = str(email_list)
	server = smtplib.SMTP("localhost")
	server.set_debuglevel(0)
	server.sendmail(fromaddr, toaddrs, msg)
	server.quit()

 

You can execute the script with:
/usr/bin/python scriptname
