script to tell whether there exists directory or not
Hi,
I am writing a script as follows:
where the vtask is a command line execution script
in my 'a' file I have some servers
I want to check if the log directory exists in the servers if it exists then it should update in the 12.5.txt else if the log directory does not exists if should update in the 12.0.txt directory.
I want to just grep the '12.5.0.2307' from a command output
############################################################################
CA IT Client Manager
--------------------
Agent - Basic Hardware Inventory 12.5.0.2307
Agent - Asset Management 12.5.0.2307
Agent - Data Transport 12.5.0.2307
Agent - Software Delivery 12.5.0.2307
Agent - Deployment 12.5.0.2307
############################################################################
The above command gives me full output of the text file since it matches all the 12.5.0.2307 I want to grep just '12.5.0.2307' alone...I don't want the whole line just the 12.5.0.2307, how to achieve this?
Hi, My box is aix and the grep does not support -o option. Any other suggestions? ofcourse I can think about awk but not sure how to get the word alone from the output
Thanks for your reply and the solution. But, I am struck a bit hope to get a lift from you.
The output is shown below:
what I want to know is even if the command does not find '12.5.0.2307' version in the server it still goes to the 12.5.txt file, I want if the command does not find the version as '12.5.0.2307' or it got disconnected it should go to 12.0.txt
The version.txt file has the following entries
12.5.0.2307
12.5.0.2307
12.5.0.2307
not sure why another '1' is added after 12.5.0.23071

Reason: hiding the servername + added additional inputs
There are some files with suffix dates like abc_20032019.dat abc_17032019.dat
If at least one file exists then perform some operation else exit from execution.
Korn shell

array=($inputdir/abc*.dat)

then
echo " file exits"
else
