Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Copying multiple files and appending time stamp before file extension Post 302980181 by RudiC on Thursday 25th of August 2016 03:06:43 AM

A practical hint for the future: it pays off to be more detailed and precise when specifying a problem, and nothing should be taken for granted.
While many people interpret ddmmyy as a date format string, tt - at least for me - doesn't ring a bell, and apmcd47's proposal ignores it as well. And, if it were sth like a date format - what date to deploy? Yes, you - in a second post - said "server date", but does that make sense to use something arbitrary, unrelated to anything, the result depending on when the script was run?

NAME
ecaccess-file-move - Move or Rename ECaccess Files SYNOPSIS

Allow moving an ECaccess File. When the move occurs within the same ECaccess File System then it is a rename. When the move occurs across two different ECaccess File Systems then first a copy is done and then a delete of the original file is done (e.g. similar to ecaccess- file-copy ... -erase). The source-ecaccess-file and target-ecaccess-file are in the form [domain:][/user-id/]path. Please read the "Shell commands -> File Management" section of the "ecaccess" guide for more information on the ECaccess File System. ARGUMENTS
source-ecaccess-file The source ECaccess File name. target-ecaccess-file The target ECaccess File name. OPTIONS
-version Display version number and exits. -help Print a brief help message and exits. -manual Prints the manual page and exits. -debug Display the SOAP messages exchanged. EXAMPLES
ecaccess-file-move ec:test1.txt ec:test2.txt Rename the test1.txt file in the ECFS directory of the authenticated user in test2.txt. ecaccess-file-move ec:test1.txt home:test2.txt Copy the test1.txt file from the ECFS directory of the authenticated user to the test2.txt file in the $HOME directory of the authenticated user, then delete the test1.txt file from ECFS.
