If you get 'too many open files', try this:

find /dupgprs/data/ -type f |
        grep -v "\.out" | # Ignore previously parsed files
        xargs awk 'BEGIN { getline FNUM < "/tmp/FNUM"; close("/tmp/FNUM"); }
END   { printf("%d\n", FNUM) > "/tmp/FNUM";     }
FNR==1{ FNUM++; if(LF) close(LF); LF=FILENAME ".out" }
{ printf("%s|0| | | | | | | |%08d%08d |\n", FNUM, FNR) > LF; }'

awk: cmd. line:3: (FILENAME=/dupgprs/data/gsmconsolidated201404052345340 FNR=1) fatal: not enough arguments to satisfy format string
        `%s |0| | | | | | | |%08d%08d |
'
                                   ^ ran out for this one

find /dupgprs/data/ -type f |

        xargs awk 'BEGIN { getline FNUM < "/tmp/FNUM"; close("/tmp/FNUM"); }
END   { printf("%d\n", FNUM) > "/tmp/FNUM";     }
FNR==1{ FNUM++; if(LF) close(LF); LF=FILENAME ".out" }
{ printf("%s|0| | | | | | | |%08d%08d |\n", $0, FNUM, FNR) > LF; }'

you are the man. Tried the script on a batch of 427 cdr's and it uploaded like charm. Thanks a lot man. You have no idea, how much you have helped me.
