Find and move
Greetings....

Trying to find and move the 30 days old logs

Code:
#!/bin/bash
DATE=`date +%d-%b-%Y`
STATUSLOG="$HPATH$DATE-E3Backup.log"
HPATH="/ABC/Websphere/"
HT=`hostname`
BKUPSTR="/ABC/Websphere/$HT/"
echo "Moving of old logs Started on $HT [`date +%Y-%m-%d:::%H:%M:%S`] " >> $STATUSLOG
find /apps/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv01/logs/server1 -name "*.log" -type f -mtime +30 -exec mv {} $BKUPSTR \;
echo "Moving of old logs sucessfully completed $HT [`date +%Y-%m-%d:::%H:%M:%S`] " >> $STATUSLOG

May be the order of assignments:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
DATE=`date +%d-%b-%Y`
HPATH="/ABC/Websphere/"
STATUSLOG="$HPATH$DATE-NgsE3Backup.log"
.
.
blah blah blah

... will print even when find/mv fail, which could prove to be misleading to someone troubleshooting a problem.
