gtroyp Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Made a dumb mistake - need help fixing it I was moving some files between array disks (i.e. Disk1 to Disk5) because I had waited too long to add a new drive and the old ones were all at 85-90+% so I wanted to balance things out. Well, when I was moving things about in Midnight Commander, I might have used copy instead of move out of habit. So I looked a fast way to check for duplicate files between directories. I am using diff -rsq /mnt/disk1/Movies /mnt/disk5/Movies | grep identical EDIT/UPDATE: Since I was moving whole directories I tried this and it is working way better: diff -sq /mnt/disk3/Movies /mnt/disk5/Movies | grep Common But I came across a utility, fdupes, which looks to be more use specific. Has anyone installed that on unraid? Other options also welcome... Quote Link to comment
timz Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 I was able to use fdupes on unraid by just copying the binary from my linux mint distribution. Quote Link to comment
