Welcome arumugavelvelu ,

Firstly, you don't need -name '*' which says "only objects called anything" so leaving it out will ignore name matching and find objects that match the other criteria giving you the same result.

If you have a fixed set of input directories, then you could set your variables at the top to refer to them, e.g.:-
Code:
SRC_CDR_OUTBOUND="/omount/outbound/DIR1 /omount/outbound/DIR3 /omount/outbound/DIR4"
SRC_CDR_INBOUND="/omount/inbound/DIR1 /omount/inbound/DIR3 /omount/inbound/DIR4"

These will then get used by your find command as the directories to search.

If the directories may change over time and you don't want to recode them, you may need to do something a bit more elaborate like:
Code:
SRC_CDR_OUTBOUND="`ls -1d /omount/outbound/* | grep -v DIR2"
SRC_CDR_INBOUND="`ls -1d /omount/inbound/* | grep -v DIR2"


This will get you all the objects at that level, so if you want to exclude files, then you have to be more elaborate still:-
Code:
SRC_CDR_OUTBOUND="`find /omount/outbound -type d ! -name DIR2 | cut -f-4 -d\"\/\" |sort -u`"
SRC_CDR_INBOUND="`find /omount/inbound -type d ! -name DIR2 | cut -f-4 -d\"\/\" |sort -u`"


Do these achieve what you need, or have I missed the point somewhere?
