How to pass strings from a list of strings from another file and create multiple files?
Hello Everyone ,

Iam a newbie to shell programming and iam reaching out if anyone can help in this :-

I have two files
1) Insert.txt
2) partition_list.txt

insert.txt looks like this :-
Code:
insert into emp1 partition (partition_name) 
(a1,
b2,
c4,
s6,
d8)
select 
a1,
b2,
c4,
s6,
d8
from emp partition (partition_name);
commit;


partition_list.txt looks like this :-
Code:
aemp_sec_01P2011_1
yemp_sec_01P2011_4
aemp_sec_01P2011_3
aemp_sec_01P2011_8
aemp_sec_01P2011_10
aemp_sec_01P2012_14
aemp_sec_01P2014_39
aemp_sec_01P2016_10

Each string in the partition_list.txt should replace both the "partition_name" string in the insert.txt file and create a new file for each string used in the partition_list.txt . How can this be achieved without opening the files and modifying . how can it be done through sed or awk ?

For ex :- The end o/p would be 8 new files. sample file will be :-

Code:
cat insert_aemp_sec_01P2011_1.txt
insert into emp1 partition (aemp_sec_01P2011_1) 
(a1,
b2,
c4,
s6,
d8)
select 
a1,
b2,
c4,
s6,
d8
from emp partition (aemp_sec_01P2011_1);
commit;

Code:
cat insert_yemp_sec_01P2011_4.txt
insert into emp1 partition (yemp_sec_01P2011_4) 
(a1,
b2,
c4,
s6,
d8)
select 
a1,
b2,
c4,
s6,
d8
from emp partition (yemp_sec_01P2011_4);
commit;

so there should be 8 like to be generated based on each line in partition_list.txt.


Iam sorry if i havent used to code tag button ...i apologise .

DESCRIPTION

       The file bnmotd.txt contains text displayed by bnetd(1), when users first log into the server.

       The file bnnews.txt contains text displayed when the user uses the /news chat command.

       The  files  consist  of raw text with printf-style formatting escapes.  Each line of a file can contain a type formatter from the following
       list:

	      %B     Use the broadcast attribute (???).

	      %C     Execute the line as if the user entered it as a command.

	      %E     Use the error attribute (red).

	      %I     Use the info attribute (yellow).  This is the same was %W.

	      %M     Normal chat message (white).  This will appear as if the user said it.

	      %T     Emote chat message (???).	This will appear as if the user said it.

	      %W     Use the warning attribute (yellow).  This is the same was %I.

       Within a line, any of the following format formatters may be used:

	      %%     Expand to a literal percent sign (%).

	      %a     Expand to the number of accounts on the server.

	      %c     Expand to the number of channels on the server.  This includes all permanent and current temporary channels.

	      %g     Expand to the number of games on the server.  This includes both public and private (passworded) games.

	      %h     Expand to the hostname of the server (as returned by gethostname(2)).

	      %i     Expand to this user's account ID number, formatted with a leading pound (#) sign and leading zeros.

	      %l     Expand to this user's current chat name which is usually the same

	      %r     Expand to the IP of the remote machine (the client).

	      %t     Expand to four character client tag.
