  1 banjobs  jobsub       125 Jun 17 10:35 icgorldi_2421597.log
2421597.xml

I need to grab the last XML file created
rename and move to a directory the number (2421597) change every time the process run, I need to write a shl script to do that...The process that generates the file is schedule to run 3 times a day, so three different files are created
with a different number like:
Code:
 icgorldi_2421597.xml
icgorldi_2421598.xml
icgorldi_2421599.xml

The number is a sequence but it its share by other processes, so this file is not necessary in a sequence 97..9..99 the number is random..
Thank you

VK_LOGMERGE(1)						      General Commands Manual						    VK_LOGMERGE(1)

NAME
vk_logmerge - a Valgrind XML log file merger SYNOPSIS
vk_logmerge [flags and input files in any order] DESCRIPTION
vk_logmerge is a valkyrie(1) helper. Given multiple log files (in xml format) generated by multiple runs on a parallel machine, or multiple log files generated by sequential runs on a single-processor machine, for the same binary, vk_logmerge merges the log files together, sum- ming the counts of duplicates, and outputs the result to a single file. As input, vk_logmerge expects the log-files to-be-merged and/or a file containing the list of log-files to-be-merged, with each entry on a separate line. Log files can be merged from within valkyrie(1) , or use can invoke vk_logmerge directly. OPTIONS
-h Show help message -v Be verbose (more -v's give more) -t Output plain text (non-xml) -f <log_list> Obtain input files from <log_list> file (one per line) -o <writefile> File to write output to At least 1 input file must be given. If no '-o outfile' is given, writes to standard output. EXAMPLES
vk_logmerge log1.xml -f loglist.fls -o merged.xml SEE ALSO
valkyrie(1), valgrind(1). AUTHOR
vk_logmerge was written by Donna Robinson, Cerion Armour-Brown and others. This manual page was written by Hai Zaar <haizaar@haizaar.com>, for the Debian project (but may be used by others). 2009-05-02 VK_LOGMERGE(1)
