Display Need Script to ZIP/SAVE & then DELETE Log file & send a mail conformation for any error
ENVIROMENT
Linux: RHEL 6.4
Log Path: /usr/iplanet/servers/https-company/logs
Log Format: user.log.03-15-2015
I have log4j log rotation enabled rotating files on a daily basis.

The rotated logs are NOT compressed & are taking up too much space.

I need a script that will run daily that will do 3 things:

1. Check the folder for uncompressed log files, compress them into a ZIP file
2. Delete the uncompressed log files after they are compressed
3. Check the folder & delete the ZIP log files that are OLDER than 6 months.
4. send mail for any error and successful

scanlogs

SCANLOGS(8)						    InterNetNews Documentation						       SCANLOGS(8)

NAME

       scanlogs - Summarize and rotate INN log files

SYNOPSIS

       scanlogs [norotate]

DESCRIPTION

       scanlogs summarizes the information recorded in the INN log files which reside in the pathlog directory set in inn.conf (see newslog(5) for
       further details about these log files).	It is normally invoked by the news.daily(8) script which performs daily server maintenance tasks.

       It invokes "ctlinnd flushlogs" to close the news and error log files, rename them to add ".old" to the file names and open fresh news and
       error logs; the active file is also flushed to disk, along with the history database.

       By default, scanlogs rotates and cleans out the logs.  It keeps up to logcycles old compressed log files in pathlog/OLD (the logcycles
       parameter can be set in inn.conf).   scanlogs also keeps archives of the active file in this directory.

       It invokes tally.control if newgroup.log or rmgroup.log exists in pathlog (see the control.log entry of newslog(5) for more information
       about that).

       scanlogs displays the contents of errlog and news.crit, if non-empty, and runs innreport to summarize the contents of news and news.notice,
       and to update the unwanted.log file amongst other things (see more information about that in innreport(8)).

OPTIONS

       Only one option is currently accepted:

       norotate
	   Using this option disables the rotating and cleaning aspect of the log processing:  the logs files are only scanned for information and
	   no contents are altered.  If scanlogs is invoked more than once a day, the norotate option should be used to prevent premature log
	   cleaning.

FILES

       See newslog(5) for the list of log files processed by scanlogs.
