What this does is scan all available drives on the server. I've added c-z to ensure I've captured all possibilities.
Then, when it finds the file it's searching for, it sets the path (including file name) as a variable.
Essentially I need to search the Linux environment for a file, then set that path in a variable.
Thanks!
