Move files and rename ??
1. If I have a file-yyyymmdd.dat in a directory DATA1, then how do I move this file to directory DATA2 and the file name change to file-yyyymmdd.dat.currenttime
I can manual do this $mv fileA-yyyymmdd.dat ./DATA2/fileA-yyyymmdd.dat.`date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S` but how do I move all of the files in this directory to new DATA2 and rename it with an extension currenttime like file-yyyymmdd.dat..`date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S` I dont want to do mannual one by one . 2. If I want to move all file older than file-20060320.dat to DATA2 then what should I do with korn shell. Thanks .
