| Don't use spaces around the equal signs:
Don't use this: RESULT = `/usr/bin/du -sm /mnt | awk '$1 > 100'`
Use this: RESULT=`/usr/bin/du -sm /mnt | awk '$1 > 100'`

| Your RESULT is not providing the proper data. When I run it manually $1 is the size & directory name, which is what you are sending to tar. Since there is no file by the name of the size of the directory the command presents an error. You need to just pass the file/directory names you wish to tar up.

| If these files are not expected for your server you should investigate why this is occurring and correct the issue. This is the recommended step over just taring up the files/directories. Especially having files/directories created in /mnt. That is generally not normal for a server.
The below provides a modified version of the command that populates the RESULT variable. It will output just the file/directory names in /mnt that are over 100MB:

| Hi,
Modified a bit and tested. It runs successfully. It find file that are higher than 5 MB in size and archives it.
--------- Script ---------
[root@new 24x7]# cat test.sh
#!/bin/bash
RESULT=`/usr/bin/du -sm /24x7/* | awk '$1 > 5'| awk {'print $2'}`
DATE=`date +%d%b%Y-%H%M-%S`
zip -r -s 128 archive-$DATE.zip $RESULT
--------- Execution ---------
[root@new 24x7]# ./test.sh
adding: 24x7/test1.img (deflated 100%)
adding: 24x7/test2.img (deflated 100%)
adding: 24x7/test3.img (deflated 100%)
--------- Created Archive ---------
[root@new 24x7]# ll
total 26648
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 18833 May 16 01:03 archive-16May2014-0103-26.zip
