Full Discussion: Need Linux equivalent for UNIX
Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Need Linux equivalent for UNIX Post 302943502 by Don Cragun on Saturday 9th of May 2015 05:49:10 AM

After more than 375 posts, I am very disappointed that you still don't have any idea how to write a simple for or while loop using a standard shell! And, the title of this thread doesn't give any indication of what you are trying to do.

You were also very skimpy with details about whether or not all of your directories will actually contain a log file for the desired hostname, how the variables hostname, fdrdate, and greptime are set, nor where the log directory is located.

Maybe the following will give you a starting point:
Code:
#!/bin/ksh
#set -xv
basedir="/path/of/log"
fdrdate_new=${1:-fdrdate_new default value}
greptime=${2:-greptime default value}
hostname=${1:-default hostname}
looking=1
cd "$basedir"
ls -td * | while [ "$looking" ] && read fn
do
	if [ ! -d "$fn" ]
	then	continue
	fi
	if grep "$greptime.*exit" "$fn/Prod.$hostname.log" | grep "$fdrdate_new"
	then	echo "Match found in file: $fn/Prod.$hostname.log"
		looking=
	else	echo "No match found in file: $fn/Prod.$hostname.log"
	fi
done
if [ "$looking" ]
then	echo "No match found."
	exit 1
fi

NEW(1)                                                               [nmh-1.5]                                                              NEW(1)

NAME

       new - report on folders with new messages

       fnext - set current folder to next folder with new messages

       fprev - set current folder to previous folder with new messages

       unseen - scan new messages in all folders with new messages

SYNOPSIS

       new [sequences] [-mode mode] [-folders foldersfile] [-version] [-help]

       fnext is equivalent to new -mode fnext

       fprev is equivalent to new -mode fprev

       unseen is equivalent to new -mode unseen

DESCRIPTION

       New  in  its  default  mode  produces  a  one-line-per-folder  listing of all folders containing messages in the listed sequences or in the
       sequences listed in the profile entry "Unseen-Sequence".  Each line contains the folder, the number of messages in the  desired  sequences,
       and the message lists from the .mh_sequences file.  For example:

            foo     11.* 40-50
            bar    380.  760-772 824-828
             total    391.

       The `*' on foo indicates that it is the current folder.  The last line shows the total number of messages in the desired sequences.

       New crawls the folder hierarchy recursively to find all folders, and prints them in lexicographic order.  Override this behavior by provid-
       ing foldersfile containing the pre-sorted list of folders new should check, one per line.

       In fnext and fprev modes, new instead changes to the next or previous matching folder, respectively.

       In unseen mode, new executes scan sequences for each matching folder.

FILES

       $HOME/.mh_profile          The user profile

PROFILE COMPONENTS

       Path:                To determine the user's nmh directory
       Current-Folder:      To find the default current folder
       Unseen-Sequence:     The name of the unseen message sequence

SEE ALSO

       scan(1), mh-format(5)
