Scripting for Inventory
Hi,
I am getting all the scripts in my unix box through ls and pasting them in a xls for the Inventory Purpose.
Right now I am doing it manually I am going manually in each directory and doing a ls > temp.txt and pasting this out put in xls manually.
Is there any way to automate this ..if I run some script in my root directory it should get the folder path , folder name and the script in that folder.
As I said I am doing it manually I don't know how to get started on this..pls tell me some logic for doing this.
Regards,
Deepti

invsync(8) System Manager's Manual invsync(8)
NAME
invsync - Synchronizes system inventory
SYNOPSIS
/usr/bin/invsync
DESCRIPTION
The invsync utility creates a Master Synchronization Inventory (MSI) file and a Customized File Inventory (CFI) file. These files can be
used to preserve the customized or modified state of your system in the event of a new installation. The MSI file contains a complete list
of files installed by the setld utility and the state of those files when they were installed. The CFI file contains the names of those
files installed by the setld utility that have been customized or modified since the installation. The files listed in the CFI file are
overwritten if you perform a new installation of the operating system.
You must have superuser privileges to run the invsync utility.
The invsync utility calls the usync utility to create the MSI file. After the MSI file is created, the invsync utility calls the udetect
utility to compare the state of the files shown in the MSI file with the current state of the files installed on the system. If a file
state differs, an entry is written to the CFI file.
Edit the CFI file to remove the entries for files that you do not want to back up. The CFI file and the MSI file are written in the setld
inventory file format. For more information, refer to the stl_inv(4) refernce page.
RESTRICTIONS
You must have superuser privileges to run the invsync utility.
FILES
Subset lock files Subset inventory files Customized File Inventory Master Synchronization Inventory
