Hi Aia,

I did write a piece of code but not quite confident with it as I m not entirely into coding...but nt really sure if I had put it together exactly right..


Code:
sub take_backup

{
	$dir= 'cd /apps/XEServer';
       $cmd= 'tar -cvf backup/backup_$(date +%y%m%d).tar  *.log';
}

sub delete_logs
{
 $dir= ' cd /apps/XEServer'; 
 $cmd= 'rm *.log';
}
