Solaris: New files in a directory for longer than 1h
Hi guys,
I have an interesting problem. I have looked on the forums for simular solutions but i need a differnt approach.
On an evening i have files that are created and sit in a directory, then someone will send these files on. Sometimes they forget.....
I am trying to create something that will monitor the directory for new files but the files have been there for more than an hour and alerting. I have the alerting in place, but i can't get my brain to think of a good solution.
As it is a solaris system that i can't install any packages on.... i am taking an approach of:
creating a date stamp of an hour ago
touching a file with that date stamp then doing a find and showing all files created after my touched file
now this shows all files created after the the touched files datestamp(1hour ago) but also shows files created 1 min ago (i dont want it to alert these files as they just turned up) I could run via cron every 15 mins or so.
Am i complicating things? is there a better approach? Any suggestions would be great and what would be the best idea to get it to just show the files that have turned up and not sent after an hour?

dh_movefiles
DH_MOVEFILES(1) Debhelper DH_MOVEFILES(1)NAME
dh_movefiles - move files out of debian/tmp into subpackages
SYNOPSIS
dh_movefiles [debhelperoptions] [--sourcedir=dir] [-Xitem] [file...]
DESCRIPTION
dh_movefiles is a debhelper program that is responsible for moving files out of debian/tmp or some other directory and into other package
build directories. This may be useful if your package has a Makefile that installs everything into debian/tmp, and you need to break that
up into subpackages.
Note: dh_install is a much better program, and you are recommended to use it instead of dh_movefiles.
FILES
debian/package.files
Lists the files to be moved into a package, separated by whitespace. The filenames listed should be relative to debian/tmp/. You can
also list directory names, and the whole directory will be moved.
OPTIONS --sourcedir=dir
Instead of moving files out of debian/tmp (the default), this option makes it move files out of some other directory. Since the entire
contents of the sourcedir is moved, specifying something like --sourcedir=/ is very unsafe, so to prevent mistakes, the sourcedir must
be a relative filename; it cannot begin with a `/'.
-Xitem, --exclude=item
Exclude files that contain item anywhere in their filename from being installed.
file ...
Lists files to move. The filenames listed should be relative to debian/tmp/. You can also list directory names, and the whole directory
will be moved. It is an error to list files here unless you use -p, -i, or -a to tell dh_movefiles which subpackage to put them in.
NOTES
Note that files are always moved out of debian/tmp by default (even if you have instructed debhelper to use a compatibility level higher
than one, which does not otherwise use debian/tmp for anything at all). The idea behind this is that the package that is being built can be
told to install into debian/tmp, and then files can be moved by dh_movefiles from that directory. Any files or directories that remain are
ignored, and get deleted by dh_clean later.

This program is a part of debhelper.
