Hi, Sekar1
I'm not an sql-expert. But probably you may find my hints useful
1) To generate the necessary filename you can use shell's date command, e.g.
a script
Code:
#!/usr/bin/env bash

FILENAME="Report_$(date +%d_%b_%g_%:::z%Z).csv"

touch $FILENAME

It will create files named Report_22_Sep_09_+03EEST.csv every time it is run. (The date certainly changes).

2) To run this script every hour you may use following
Code:
crontab -u your_username -e

and then edit your crontab by adding the following line:
Code:
* */1 * * * the_name_of_the_above_script

I hope I could help
