UNIX Shell script to chec timeout period when collecting files in directory - HELP
Hi,

I have a shell script which is to perform a check if all 4 particular type of files exists in a directory.
If ALL 4 files are present within a specific Timeframe, then tar these files and zip it.
If not all 4 files are present in the directory after the specific timeframe, then tar whatever files (those that had matched the regex) and zip them.
If it's within the timeframe all 4 files have not arrived, then the script waits until it has reached the timeframe for any or all of the 4 files to arrive.
The timeframe referred to here is that the arithmetic difference between the current time and the file modification time.

The script I have (BASH) is attached in this posting.

However, this is the problem:
From the script's output, it did not show the process of obtaining the variables i.e. OSS_INSTANCE, OSS_NAME, BSC_VAL, etc, etc ..., for the following 2 files encountered:
1003_oxnn2_BSC48379.2.200603130501.768750
1003_oxnn2_BSC48379.72.200603140501.768761
1003_oxnn2_BSC48379.79.200603140501.768766
The output in Listing 1 is based on the fact it has reached the specified timeframe and all 4 files are in the particular directory. Therefore, it should now tar these 4 files and compress them, in which it did.

Listing 1:

The output in Listing 2 is to show that all 4 files have arrived, and it's still within the timeframe specified. Therefore, it should also tar all 4 files and zip them - in which it also did.

However, the directory in which my script had intentionally copied the all 4 scripts to be tar-ed and zip-ed only showed 3 files:
a /tmp/osspkg2s/uma/umabass/cs_bsspm_aif/client/out/1003_oxnn2_BSC48379.1.200603130501.768754 1K

For both Listing 1 and Listing 2, could anyone help by pointing out where did I go wrong? Kindly also provide feedbacks and solutions as to how the overall structure of this script can be improved.

Thanks in advance.

Danny, for your own sake I suggest that you remove the content of your post. There are a number of pieces of information which any RAN operator would not like to have posted on a public website.

I suggest you find & replace the operator name, the RAN manufacturers name and the ids of the specific nodes (BSC and OSS) then repost.
