Desired output:-

1.7G

Kindly help me with this i am new to solaris

Solution 
  • find $DUMPDIR -name "${DUMPFILE}*" -exec ls -lh {} \; | awk '{print $5}'

    You can use GNU extension -h option for ls to print sizes in human readable format. Note: as suggested by @Andrew Henle, -h is not guaranteed to be supported in ls.

    Or simply use, 

    ls -lh "$DUMPDIR/${DUMPFILE}*" | cut -d' ' -f 5
