i have a list of files that contains some PC hostname, then i need to enumerate every hostname and check if there's a table with same name of the hosts in MySQL database XYZ.
I need this because have to decide automatically if i have to make a create table or a insert into an existent table.
Database XYZ is composed by a table for every hostname i have (inventory purposes), now i have a scheduled task that creates a inventory text file and put it in a directory. Let's go back to first phrases of this post, i wish to feed a list of inventory files into another file then compare entries from that file with a ls (or similar) of sql directory.
I know for sure that for every old hostname there's a table named like the hostname but in the script that execute the sql code i need to create a new table in case of new hostname that make himself the inventory, so...
Eg.
I have a file named "hostnames" which contain:
Code:
pc001
pc002
pc005
...
And a directory "sqldir" which contains sql tables of the machines:
Now... Have anybody optimal way or suggests to read the file "hostnames" and then compare every hostname with the list of the directory "sqldir" and set a variable to make possible decide if it's the time to create a new table or append a existent one?
P.S. I have already the statement to create a new one or append, need only to put the right value for the variable which decide "right" or "left"...
Sorry if i have written too much but i'm not very confident in US/english and i fear to going misunderstood... Thx

Reason: errors
#!/bin/bash
for HH in `cat hostnames`
do
Var=`ls |awk '/'$HH'/ {print 1}'`
if [ "$Var" = "1" ] ; then
echo append script for $HH
else
echo cretae script for $HH
fi
done
and the result was:
append script for pc001
append script for pc002
cretae script for pc003
cretae script for pc004
cretae script for pc005
cretae script for pc006
append script for pc007

I feel stupid for asking this because it seems that MYSQL code isn't working the way that I think it should work.
Basically I wrote code like this:
select * from `Test_DC_Trailer` HAVING max(DR_RefKey);
Where the DR_RefKey is a unique numeric field that is auto iterated (like a primary key)... (7 Replies)
