Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting need some explain about this script Post 302305547 by methyl on Thursday 9th of April 2009 07:51:45 AM

Aside:
If you are at design stage,
filename_YYYY_MM_DD_HHMMSS.log
would be easier to deal with than
filename_DD_MM_YYYY_HHMMSS.log

Questions:
How many files in directory /export/home/dell/log ?

Are there any subdirectories under /export/home/dell/log ? (This question is about using unix "find").

Is every file in directory /export/home/dell/log of the form:
filename_DD_MM_YYYY_HHMMSS.log ?

Is the file timestamp the same as the time in the file name?

Are there any underscore "_" or full stop "." or space " " characters in any "filename" string?

Is indexing these logs a one-off exercise or will it be run once per day at the end of each day (for example)?
