your question:
1. Will the user running this script have read access to files matching the pattern /home/user/myfiles/*/*/*.log.* ?
no. I will schedule the shell script program to run using ascheduler.
Code:
sudo cd /home/user/myfiles ; tar cf - */*/*.log | ( cd /tmp/log ; tar xf - )
This script copies log files from one directory to another. The log files are generated with the current dates on the end of the .log extension for example file1.log.05242016
I ran your code which is awesome. I had one issue. I checked the brackets in the script and the code appears to be good. This is the error message that I am getting
Code:
awk: 0602-542 there is an extra ] character.
The source line is 12.
The error context is
v=$2;gsub(/^[\\/ ]*/,"",v);gsub(/ *$/,"",v);K[L[$1]]=v}
awk: 0602-521 There is a regular expresssion error.

Hi all,
We dont have access to aix source code and i have a doubt.
The flag SC_NO_RESERVE, is it got to do anything with the failover?
If the flag is set the paths are going to failed state. If flag is not set everything comes up fine after failover.
Thanks in advance for helping

Hey, all!
Why is the "human readable" flag changing the behavior of du? And while I'm at it, can you make du only look at files, not directories. I often find myself wanting to find the largest file(s) in a dir or vol. Using 'find' itself, it seems you have to at least be able to guess the size of... (2 Replies)
Hey guys,
Suppose i run passwd via bash shell. It is a suid program, which temporarily runs as root(owner) and modifies the user entries.

log
log(8) System Manager's Manual log(8)NAME
log - Records input and output from a program
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/log <logfile> <command>
OPERANDS
The file in which to record the interaction being logged. The command to execute.
DESCRIPTION
The log program runs <command> and logs the input to and output from <command> to the <logfile> file. Input and output are logged until
<command> exits, the log program exits, and the exit status of <command> is returned.
The log program is used by the system installation procedure and the it(8) command to create the /var/adm/smlogs/install.log and
/var/adm/smlogs/it.log installation log files.
RESTRICTIONS
Because the log program is used in the installation standalone environment, program size was the greatest concern in its implementation.
The log program does not search for the PATH variable to locate <command> and error messages are terse.
The log program causes <command> to take standard input from and write standard output and standard error to UNIX pipes. Some commands
will not be able to operate in this environment; therefore, it is suggested that you use the script(1) command instead. UNIX shells will
not issue prompts when run from log unless the shell is started with an explicit interactive switch (-i for most shells). For example, log
foo.tmp /sbin/sh -i
In the previous example, foo.tmp is the name of <logfile>.
The log program intercepts end-of-file (usually Ctrl/d). Therefore programs which normally receive end-of-file as an exit command must
exit by some other means.
ERRORS
Log open error
Explanation:
The log program was unable to open <logfile>. Verify that the directory exists and that ownerships and permissions are set correctly.
Exec Error
Explanation:
The log program was unable to execute <command>. Verify that you specified a full pathname for <command> and that <command> is an exe-
cutable file.
Fork Error
Explanation:
The log program was unable to create one of the processes it requires to log data.
