Copy latest files from another server
Hi,
I wanted to copy monthly generated csv file(s)( of latest date) at one server to my current server.
So I wrote the following script, but does not work.
The script is invoked on my current server
Can you please help?
Code:
!/bin/ksh
#. /apps/comp/

cd /apps/di/dev/import/paper
ssh hpqad02
cd /apps/qad/tst/export/di
latest_file=find . -name "*.csv"
scp -p $latest_file qadsys@$hpqad02:/apps/di/dev/import/paper

Try this :
Code:
!/bin/ksh
#. /apps/comp/

cd /apps/di/dev/import/paper
latest_file=`echo 'find /apps/qad/tst/export/di -name "*.csv"' | ssh hpqad02`
scp -p $latest_file qadsys@$hpqad02:/apps/di/dev/import/paper

hope you have ssh keys setup else need to give password.
