Outside Temperature From an API in a Shell Script

I’m interested in collecting some internal temperature data from my servers to look at the effect of adding an NMVe drive. Last week we had a couple of warm days immediately followed by a couple of cool ones. I imagine a 20° ambient temperature change could effect the server temperatures, so I thought it would be good to add that to my temperature logs.

I don’t have a weather station or other automated system for collecting the temperature, but there are several commercial sources for this data which, while probably not as good as a sensor in the server room, will be fine for our purposes.

Recursive list of files in Linux

I’ve spent a few hours over the weekend migrating a media library from an external USB drive to the NAS, and in the process reorganised it, and in many cases bulk changed file names. I’ve also added a heap of metadata.

I’d like to check that I haven’t missed any files, but a side by side listing of each data source won’t do the trick, so I’ll probably end up pulling the data into a spreadsheet, but I’d like to get as close as possible with Linux-fu first.
