Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Find files not matching multiple patterns and then delete anything older than 10 days Post 302974566 by Don Cragun on Tuesday 31st of May 2016 07:14:45 PM

Your requirements are not at all clear.
  1. What constitutes a file?
  2. How are instances of a file determined?
  3. How are the latest instances of a file determined? (By name? By timestamp? Something else?)
  4. Are you trying to keep 10 monthly instances and 10 daily instances of a file? Or 10 instances of daily and monthly files? Or, maybe, 9 daily instances and 1 monthly instance???
