But if i want to include variables or pass arguments to regular expression then its giving me error "ls: cannot access /home/work/batch/somefilename_{27..96}.*: No such file or directory". But thats not true bec file is present but somehow with variables regex is not working.
Code:
>segStart="27"
>segEnd="96"
>myvar="$segStart..$segEnd"
>echo $segStart
27
>echo $segEnd
96
>echo $myvar
27..96
ls -d $WORKDIR/batch/somefilename_{$myvar}.*
"ls: cannot access /home/work/batch/somefilename_{27..96}.*: No such file or directory"
>array=($(ls -d $WORKDIR/batch/somefilename_$myvar.* 2>/dev/null))
>len=${#array[*]}
>echo $len
0
Can someone please advise here why the regular expression is not working when using ls and {..} with variables?
Note: I am trying to store all the directory names in an array whose directory name is between two integer number
for eg there are 1-100 dir available with name file_1.some file_2.some file_3.some .. file_100.some.
If user wants to get directory from 47 till 97, then i want to read that value, store them and pass it in above ls command.
If you have any other alternative that will also help.

ipsec_config_batch
ipsec_config_batch(1M)ipsec_config_batch(1M)NAME
ipsec_config_batch - allow for processing of IPsec config operations in a single batch file
SYNOPSIS
batch_file_name profile_file]
DESCRIPTION
The command allows you to specify multiple and operations in a single batch file for processing. HP-UX IPSec processes the operations in a
batch file as a group. This mode is useful if you are adding or deleting configuration records that may affect other records.
If one operation is invalid, all operations in the batch file fail. The utility first verifies each operation in the batch file for syntax
errors and collisions (object names and priority values) with existing entries in the configuration database. If all operations in the
batch file are valid, the HP-UX IPSec infrastructure updates the configuration database with all operations at the same time. If HP-UX
IPSec is active and running, the HP-UX IPSec infrastructure also updates the runtime policy database.
Options and Operands
The batch operation recognizes the following options and operands:
batch_file_name
The name of the batch file containing and operations.
A batch file cannot contain operations that operate on the following objects:
For example, the
operation is illegal in a batch file.
In addition, a batch file cannot contain the following commands:
o does not allow recursive batch files) or commands.
o
o
Lines starting with a pound sign are interpreted as comments. Comment lines within an operation are not allowed.
Maximum length: 1023 characters.
Default: None.
The utility verifies the and operations, but does not add or delete entries in the configuration database. This option applies to
all operations in the batch file. Individual operations in the batch file cannot specify the option.
Specifies the name of the profile file containing default argument
values for this policy. The argument values are evaluated once, when the policy is added to the configuration database. Val-
ues used from the profile file become part of the configuration record for the policy.
This argument applies to all operations in the batch file. Individual operations in the batch file cannot specify the profile
argument.
Maximum length: 1023 characters.
Default:
