Hello RudiC and thank you for this reply and inquiry.
The two file versions will never coexist together. It will either be:
bootstrap_cookbooks_version_green
bootstrap_cookbooks_version_red
or the file won't exist at all.
The reason for the oneliner is because I'm using a "Here Doc" in Bash to connect once to a group of servers and I'm issuing multiple commands against each server for a report. I know there are better ways to do this but this is the script we started with and what I'm supporting for now since the report from this script is actively used daily. Eventually I will move us to another way to retrieve the results we need but for now I'm keeping this script alive. So far I've been able to acheive what I need in this Here Doc step of the script whereby each data I want to retrieve from the remote server is contained all in one liner commands.
I hope this explanation is enough as to why I'm hoping I can answer this question using a one line command to identify the filename in this folder.
Thank you.
