File Archive Script
Hi There,
I want to create a script that will archive files out of a log folder into seperate folders below it, but I need it to keep the previous 2 days worth of information. Now I know I can easily get a script to put the files in there but I don't know how to only get files older than 2 days, my problem is that the file name doesn't have a date in it so i'll need to use the following date to decide which ones to archive
-rw-r--r-- 1 ugpea eupuk 1824 15 Feb 14:14 submit_rep_15141419_4042930.log
-rw-rw-r-- 1 eupuk eupuk 400483 15 Feb 14:14 med_main.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root system 4001576 15 Feb 14:15 jobwatch_eupuk.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root system 50384302 15 Feb 14:15 socketserver_eupuk.log
-rw-rw-r-- 1 eupuk eupuk 374478 15 Feb 14:15 provision_script.log
I think I can use an awk command but have never used it before, does anyone know what command I should use?
Thanks in advance.
