Change name of files to their paths -- find loop
Dear All,
I have many sub-folders but each of them have a file with same name but different data.
I want to either move or copy them into a new folder but they need to have the path of where they are coming as part of their name...
I have managed to find the files but dont know how to change the name
Code:
find . -name output.csv | xargs -I {} cp -iv {} ./results

I have tried the loop but dont face the same problem
Code:
find . -name output.csv | while read i
 do
	name=$(basename $i) 
	cat $i > ${name}.csv
 done

can someone help me plz?

processcsv.py

PROCESSCSV.PY(1)					      Virtualization Support						  PROCESSCSV.PY(1)

NAME

       processcsv.py - process virt-top CSV files

SUMMARY

	virt-top --csv data.csv
	processcsv.py < data.csv

DESCRIPTION

       virt-top is a top(1)-like utility for showing stats of virtualized domains.

       processcsv.py is a simple Python script that post-processes the output of "virt-top --csv".

       It is used like this:

	virt-top --csv data.csv
	processcsv.py < data.csv

       The second command will overwrite the following files in the current directory:

       "global.csv"
	   This contains the global (host) statistics columns from the CSV file.

       "domainNN.csv" (multiple files)
	   For each libvirt domain ID NN, a file is created containing the per-domain statistics from the CSV file.
