Questions[utility](server)

I need to see commands which send to my scsi device. I enabled scsi debug in kernel and got CDB. It looks like this: 2a 00 00 a0 09 90 00 00 08 00.

I'm searching for command line utility to decode them in human-readable format. So far I found one java-script library to do this. Is there such utility for command line?

Thanks.

I'm running batch processes via a batch file and I want SQL server to log the reslt when I execute my DBCC SHRINKFILE command from my batch file. Is there anyway to do this?

Example: - Run.bat

rem Shrink transaction log and log the result

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\osql.exe" -E -Q "Use [Database] DBCC SHRINKFILE(Database_log, 50)"

Let's say you have data with quantities in human-readable format, such as the output of du -h, and want to further operate on those numbers. Let's say you want to pipe your data through grep to do a summation of a sub-set of that data. You do this ad-hoc on many systems you've never seen before, and have only minimal utilities. You want suffix conversions for all the standard 10^n suffixes.

Exists a gnu-linux utility to convert the suffixed numbers to real numbers within a pipeline? Do you have a bash function written to do this, or some perl which might be easy to remember, instead of a length of regex replacements or several sed steps?

I need to know if there is a utility built-in to Windows Server 2003 that I can use from the command line to download a file using only one command.
Basically I know that I can download from ftp using the ftp utility but in order to do that I need to do first ftp open and then pass the other commands so it doesn't help me because I need to do perform the download only from one command. The download may be performed through http, ftp or any other protocol.

OS Name: Microsoft(R) Windows(R) Server 2003 Enterprise x64 Edition
OS Version: 5.2.3790 Service Pack 2 Build 379

I would like to know if there is some utility that can show how many open files I have on an Ubuntu server?
