I am searching for multiple files in total linux server using shell script, But find command generally searches for the entire server for the files.
which is taking more time for searching. is there any way we can write shell script where it needs to search for multiple files. if any of the file matching with search it needs to stop searching again for it.
Example : I am looking for a1 r3 y7 files in the entire server.
If i use find syntax like below
Code:
find . -type f \( -name "a1" -o -name "*r3" \)
so will it search for "a1" file in entire server and then starts looking for "r3" ?
will it search for multiple files at a time ?.

Hi all,
In the process of creating CPU reports.
I've already used `sar` to create a daily file, then monthly reports for CPU usage (which is averaged across all 4 CPU's).
I've now used `cpusar -P ?`(?=CPU#) to collect individual CPU data and have four files for each day which is great.

Is there any better way of doing this? I only want to find a status of a diff, ie diff the file and return to me whether it is different or not or non-existant.
This example works, however I think it could be less messier:
workd=`pwd`;find $workd -name "*.sum" | while read line ; do... (1 Reply)
Hi!
Can someone explain me exactly this technique? Why a process (PARENT) creates a copy of itself with FORK (CHILD)? What's the reason of this behaviour? Sorry, but I cannot understand the logic behind it.
Thanks. (4 Replies)
Hi,
I am having a problem running multiple commands in a autosys command line. For example I would like to run a perl script first and then add sleep command after that in the same autosys job like below

Hi all,
I am working on a sample backup code, where i read the files per 7200 bytes and send it to server. Before sending to server, i compress each 7200 bytes using zlib compression algorithm using dictionary max length of 1.5 MB . I find zlib is slow.
Can anyone recommend me a... (3 Replies)
Hi,

cg
CG(1)CG(1)NAME
cg - Recursively grep for a pattern and store it.
SYNOPSIS
cg [ -l ] | [ [ -i ] pattern [ files ] ]
DESCRIPTION
cg does a search though text files (usually source code) recursively for a pattern, storing matches and displaying the output in a human-
readable fashion. It is intended to give some of the functionaly of AT&T's cscope(1) tool, with the advantages of simplicity and not being
language-specific. The script will colorize output if configured as such.
It is typically run with a Perl regular expression to search for. The search can be made case insensitive by using the -i option. A list
of files may also be specified with an additional argument after the pattern. Put the files pattern in quotes to make it be matched by
Perl rather than by the shell. Running the script with no arguments will recall the results of the previous search. After the search,
entries found can be edited using the vg(1) script. The -l option shows the last log made.
SOME EXAMPLES
cg - alone recalls the previous search results.
cg -i pattern - search the default list of files for all files matching the pattern (and case-insensitively).
cg pattern '*.c' - search recursively for pattern in all *.c files. This automatically converts '*' to '.*' and '.' to '.' for you and
does a Perl pattern match on all files in the tree.
cg pattern *.c - search through the shell-expanded list of *.c files, so not done recursively (in other words, only the files your shell
pass to the script as arguments).
cg -l - show the last log made.
COMMAND-LINE OPTIONS-i Do a case-insensitive search.
-l Show the last log made.
-p Toggle the default pager option. cg has a bulit-in pager function, which can be enabled or disabled by default (in .cgvgrc). If the
default is enabled, this option disables the pager; if the default is disabled, this option enables it.
-P Force the built-in pager to be disabled.
FILES
${HOME}/.cglast
Log file of the last search.
${HOME}/.cgvgrc
Per-user configuration file (if the defaults are not desireable).
${HOME}/.cgvg/*
Log files in $HOSTNAME.shell_pid form with the log of the last search.
