Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Display file date after grepping a string in the file Post 302645377 by neutronscott on Wednesday 23rd of May 2012 09:45:47 AM

There's a few ways you can proceed with this. You can use find | sort in such a way that you recurisively search the directories, and sort output by the file timestamp. If the date is already at the end of ".csv" I don't see why you wouldn't use that.

but what I don't understand is why you prepend 22-May-2012 ? The current date? The files timestamp?

and is this really the end goal -- to just query an individual MAC from the command line? or will you merge this into a report for each MAC.

DESCRIPTION

       Amstatus gives the current state of the Amanda run specified by the config configuration. If there is no active Amanda running, it

       See the amanda(8) man page for more details about Amanda.

OPTIONS

       All options may be abbreviated to the shortest non-ambiguous sub-string. If no options are given, everything is displayed.

       [--config] config

       --file amdumpfile

       --locale-independent-date-format
	   Output the date in a locale independent format. The format is the same executing: date +'%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %Z'

EXIT CODE

       The exit code of amstatus is the ORed value of:
	0  = success
	1  = error
	4  = a dle failed
	8  = Don't know the status of a dle (RESULT_MISSING in the report)
	16 = tape error or no more tape
