Thanks for your help

I was able to store the value of splash(2nd field) in variable .I want here in single command to search the file with that variable and store the content of that file in the variable..I don't want to create a loop and make another file.

something like that
Code:
find / - name 'Metallica*' -exec ls -l {\}\ \;

b=`find / -name core -exec cat '{}'`

find /rohit/TEST/ -name "$b" -print


Please help me on this

Can you verify whether this code will work or not.

Code:
LOCATE=`find /rohit/TEST/ -name "$b_Release.txt" -print`
echo $LOCATE
for i in `cat "$LOCATE"`
do echo $i
done

Can someone help on the above problem please?


Thanks in advance

IPMI-LOCATE(8)							  System Commands						    IPMI-LOCATE(8)

NAME

       IPMI - IPMI probing utility

SYNOPSIS

       ipmi-locate [OPTION...]

DESCRIPTION

       Ipmi-locate probes and displays information about a BMC device, such as device addresses or IPMI version support.  Ipmi-locate is sometimes
       used to determine if IPMI can be found on your system.  Users are cautioned though, the failure to discover IPMI  via  Ipmi-locate  is  not
       sufficient  to  disprove that IPMI exists on your system. Your system may not publish such information or may expect clients to communicate
       at default locations.

OPTIONS

       -?, --help
	      Output a help list and exit.

       --usage
	      Output a usage message and exit.
