<p>This Thursday, 4/23/09, Tom Henretty will be coming to show us some
more advanced bash techniques. Tom will be demonstrating some of the
stuff that Jim Dinan didn't have time to get to back when he did his
awesome bash talk in December. </p>
<p>A tentative outline for this event is:</p>
<p>* Shell tools / techniques<br>
* IO redirection / piping (with basic grep, awk, and sed)<br>
* Flow control in bash - (if, for, tests)<br>
* Using find to automate repetitive tasks<br>
* Using cron to schedule tasks<br>
* Gathering filesystem usage information<br>
* Monitoring hard drive health with S.M.A.R.T. tools</p>
<p>* Tying it all together:<br>
*Simple automated backups<br>
* Incremental backups using rsync</p>
</div><b><br>The meeting will be at 7p in Dreese Labs room 317.</b><br><br>Check the website [ <a href="http://opensource.cse.ohio-state.edu/">http://opensource.cse.ohio-state.edu/</a> ] for more details.<br><br clear="all">
