Okay, so interest seems to be there. What tools would be useful? So far my list consists of: 1) du -sk or -s --si 2) rm -fr 3) find (or at least find -print) What else would you add to this list? What things do you do with your cluster that you think might benefit from with this approach? I can't promise to be able to reproduce the full complexity of these tools in my limited time, but I'd like to get something useful out there.
