20120912
20120912
20120913
20120913
20120912

In my script I am deriving the processing date. I need to check how many files are there with the current processing date. based on the return count I need to send a mail.

For the above file, If I pass 20120912 as parameter

Code:

amdd

AMDD(8) 						      System Manager's Manual							   AMDD(8)

NAME

       amdd - Amanda version of dd

SYNOPSIS

       amdd [ -d ] [ if=input ] [ of=output ] [ bs=blocksize ] [ skip=count ] [ count=count ]

DESCRIPTION

       Amdd  provides just enough of the standard dd command for the needs of Amanda.  This is handy when doing a full restore and the standard dd
       program has not yet been found.

       Amdd also provides access to the Amanda output drivers that support various tape simulations.  This may be used for debugging or to convert
       from one format to another.

       See  the  amanda(8) man page for more details about Amanda.  See the OUTPUT DRIVERS section of amanda(8) for more information on the Amanda
       output drivers.

OPTIONS

       -d     Turn on debugging output.

       -llength
	      Set the output length.  If the output driver limits the output size, this controls when end of tape will be simulated.

	      Length may have a multiplier suffix:

		     k 1024 (Kilobytes)

		     b 512 (Blocks)

		     M 1024*1024 (Megabytes)

	      The default is no multipler (bytes).

       if=input
	      Input to dd.  Default is stdin.

       of=output
	      Where to send the output of dd.  Default is stdout.

       bs=blocksize
	      Size of each record.  Input records smaller than this will not be padded.  Output records will be the same size as the corresponding
	      input record.  Default is 512 bytes.

	      Blocksize may have a multiplier suffix:

		     k 1024 (Kilobytes)

		     b 512 (Blocks)

		     M 1024*1024 (Megabytes)

	      The default is no multipler (bytes).

       count=count
	      Number of records to copy.  Default is all records until end of file.

       skip=count
	      Number of records to skip before copying input to output.  Default is zero.
