selection of files based on its types
Daily we are getting some datafiles to our unix server location FTPIN.
Incoming File names will be present in the location "/xyz/test/" as below:
"infile_A1_YYYYMMDD",
"infile_A2_YYYYMMDD",
"infile_B1_YYYYMMDD",
"infile_C1_YYYYMMDD"
"infile_C2_YYYYMMDD"
Where A, B and C are the different file types with the number of files (1,2,3..) for that type.
There will be a file indicator for these file types either "Y" or "N" declared in
seperate file (PCP file) as below:
export A=Y
export B=N
export C=Y
Iam executing this PCP file to setup the values before running my script.
I've to create a script to select the files which has the file indicator as "Y"
for the files types A, B and C and extract the data records from these files to a single file.
My question is how to check the file indicator for these file types which is declared in some other script
through my script? Also how to select the files which has the file type as "Y"?
Please guide me...
With Regards / Mysore Ganapati

parse_dynamic_clustertoc
parse_dynamic_clustertoc(1M) System Administration Commands parse_dynamic_clustertoc(1M)
NAME
parse_dynamic_clustertoc - parse clustertoc file based on dynamic entries
SYNOPSIS
cdrom/export/exec/sparc.Solaris_2.x/sbin/install.d/parse_dynamic_clustertoc
cdrom/export/exec/i386.Solaris_2.x/sbin/install.d/parse_dynamic_clustertoc
DESCRIPTION
This script parses the clustertoc file before the suninstall(1M) process is run. parse_dynamic_clustertoc is called by a modified syscon-
fig script on the install CD. When parse_dynamic_clustertoc runs, it reads the clustertoc and when it encounters SUNW_CSRMBRIFF lines, it
either checks the platform using the script's builtin function, or calls an external script. The script exits with a 0 if the cluster
entry is included, otherwise it will be ignored. If the cluster entry is to be included, the SUNW_CSRMBRIFF =(test test_arg)cluster line
is converted to SUNW_CSRMEMBER =cluster.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Checking For an SX Framebuffer
The following is an example of a simple external test to check for an SX Framebuffer. The entry in the clustertoc file is shown and fol-
lowing that is the script that must be placed in the install.d/dynamic_test directory.
SUNW_CSRMBRIFF=(smcc.dctoc sx)SUNWCsx
#! /bin/sh
#
# Likewise, this file is expected to live under $(TESTDIR).
#
case "$1"
in
sx) prtconf -p | grep 'SUNW,sx' 1> /dev/null;;
