Copy Files with script
Hello,

I have written a script to copy files from one partion to another. Not sure if this is correct.

Code:
#!/bin/sh

CDR_SOURCE=/storage/archive/logmgmt/result/billing/
CDR_DEST=/storage4/archive/logmgmt/result/billing/

cp $CDR_SOURCE $CDR_DEST;

exit 0

The CDR_SOURCE folder has 98% .csv files and few text files. i need to copy all these to CDR_DEST

Please correct me if i m wrong. Thanks

i just modified this.

Code:
#!/bin/sh

CDR_SOURCE=/storage/archive/logmgmt/result/billing/*
CDR_DEST=/storage4/archive/logmgmt/result/billing/

while read sourcefile destfile
do
cp -arp $CDR_SOURCE $CDR_DEST

if [ $? -eq 0 ] ; then
         echo "$CDR_DEST copied successfully from $CDR_SOURCE"
      else
         echo  "ERROR: failed to copy $CDR_DEST from $CDR_SOURCE"
fi
done < /home/xmp/cdrcopy.log

Will this work? Please adive.

pmfetcharchive

PMFETCHARCHIVE(3)					     Library Functions Manual						 PMFETCHARCHIVE(3)

NAME

       pmFetchArchive - get performance metrics directly from an archive log

C SYNOPSIS

       #include <pcp/pmapi.h>

       int pmFetchArchive(pmResult **result);

       cc ... -lpcp

DESCRIPTION

       pmFetchArchive  is  a  variant  of  pmFetch(3) that may only be used when the current Performance Metrics Application Programming Interface
       (PMAPI) context is associated with an archive log.

       The result is instantiated with all of the metrics (and instances) from the next archive record, consequently there is no notion of a  list
       of desired metrics, and the instance profile of the PMAPI context is ignored.

       It  is  expected that pmFetchArchive would be used to create utilities that scan archive logs, while the more common access to the archives
       would be via the pmFetch(3) interface.

       To skip records within the archive log, use pmSetMode(3) to change the  collection  time  within  the  current  PMAPI  context,	then  call
       pmFetchArchive.

       Note  that  the	result returned by pmFetchArchive is dynamically allocated, and must be released using pmFreeResult(3), not free(3C).  See
       pmFetch(3) and pmFreeResult(3) for further details.

       pmFetchArchive returns zero on success.

SEE ALSO

       PMAPI(3), pmFetch(3), pmFreeResult(3), pmNewContext(3), pmSetMode(3) and pmTrimNameSpace(3).

DIAGNOSTICS

       PM_ERR_NOTARCHIVE
	      the current PMAPI context is not associated with an archive log
