Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting stop unix find on a directory structure after finding 1st occurrence Post 302203174 by jm0221 on Friday 6th of June 2008 07:19:21 PM

Just to close this thread off, here's the solution since noone else came up with something easier:

function something {
# $1 = the directory to search from
# $2 = timeframe to check

echo 1 > ${RESULT_FILE}
find ${1} -mtime -${2} -exec ${LOCAL}/kill_find.ksh ${1} ${2} ${RESULT_FILE} {} \;
sleep 2
result=`cat ${RESULT_FILE}`
rm -f ${RESULT_FILE}
return $result
}

week=No; month=No; month6=No; year=No; year2=No

if something "${DIR}/${j}" 7
then
week=Yes; month=Yes; month6=Yes; year=Yes; year2=Yes
elif something "${DIR}/${j}" 30
then
month=Yes; month6=Yes; year=Yes; year2=Yes
elif something "${DIR}/${j}" 180
then
month6=Yes; year=Yes; year2=Yes
elif something "${DIR}/${j}" 365
then
year=Yes; year2=Yes
elif something "${DIR}/${j}" 730
then
year2=Yes
fi

and seperate function:

#!/bin/ksh

kill -9 `ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep "find ${1} -mtime -${2}" | awk '{print $2}'`
rm -f ${3}
echo 0 > ${3}
