Copy files from multiple directories into one directory without overwriting them
I have several directories and all those directories have .dat files in them. I want to copy all those .dat files to one directory say "collected_directory"
The problem is I don't want to overwrite files. So, if two file names match, I don't want the old file to be overwritten with a new one.
I know how to copy files from multiple directories to one directory:
But how to handle the case where no overwrite occurs rather the same file names get a new name like abc_1.dat if abc.dat already exists in "collected_directory"?

cmcp
cmcp(1m)cmcp(1m)NAME
cmcp - Copy files between Serviceguard nodes
SYNOPSIS
cmcp [-rv] [src_node:]src_file [...] [dest_node:]dest_file
DESCRIPTION
cmcp copies files and/or directories between Serviceguard nodes.
cmcp is limited in several ways. cmcp is best suited for situations where other remote copy facilities are not available. For a more full
featured tool for copying files between Serviceguard nodes, see ccp(1m) provided by Distributed Systems Administration Utilities.
To use this command, the local user must have the root access role on each of the involved nodes. For more information on Serviceguard
access control policies, see the manual, Managing Serviceguard.
Paths may be relative to the current working directory or specified absolutely. The current working directory on a remote node is assumed
to be the same as the local node's directory. Copies between two remote hosts are permitted.
If a file or directory already exists on the destination node, the destination node's copy will be overwritten with no prompting.
The cmcp command is not suited for large files or large numbers of files and may result in a heavy load on the command and Serviceguard
daemons. Other tools such as ccp should be considered for these purposes.
Options And Arguments
-r Recursively copy entire directories.
-v Verbose output will be displayed.
src_node
Serviceguard node to retrieve the file from. Defaults to the local node.
src_file
Path to source file on src_node.
dest_node
Serviceguard node to copy file to. Defaults to the local node.
dest_file
Path to copy src_file to on the dest_node.
RETURN VALUE
cmcp returns the following values:
0 Successful completion.
1 Command failed.
EXAMPLES
Copy the local file /etc/hosts to remote node node1
cmcp /etc/hosts node1:/etc/hosts
Copy the remote file /etc/passwd on node1 locally
cmcp node1:/etc/passwd /tmp/passwd.poe
Copy a local script directory to a remote node
cmcp -r /etc/cmcluster/scripts node1:/etc/cmcluster
