Full Discussion: Need Script to ZIP/SAVE & then DELETE Log file & DELETE ZIPS older than 12 months
Operating Systems Linux Red Hat Need Script to ZIP/SAVE & then DELETE Log file & DELETE ZIPS older than 12 months Post 302742627 by Corona688 on Tuesday 11th of December 2012 10:57:54 AM

If you're only putting one file in each zip, there's no point using old-fashioned pkware pkzip, you might as well use a stream compressor like gzip. gzip will also delete the file by itself if it succeeds (and not if it fails).

You don't need to use $?, you can put the command directly into the if-statement.

I'm also not convinced your || && chain does precisely what you want, I'd make it an if.

This should match any log files ending in a dot then a few numbers, and avoid already-compressed logs.

Code:
#!/bin/bash
cd /usr/iplanet/servers/https-company/logs
# keep today's log files as text
find . -name '*.[0-9]*' '!' -name '*.gz' -mtime +1 -type f |
while read fname
do
    if ! gzip "$fname"
    then
        echo "fatal error compressing log $fname" | /bin/mail -s 'Log Error' zachs@domain.com
        exit 1
   fi
done

# delete old zip files after one year
find . -type f -name '*.gz' -mtime +365 | 
while read fname 
do
        if ! rm $fname
        then
                echo "fatal error $fname" | /bin/mail -s 'Log Error' zachs@domain.com
                exit 1
        fi
done
# good exit
echo "log maintenance completed" | /bin/mail -s 'Logs ok' zachs@domain.com
exit 0
