Moving Files one directory to another directory shell script

Hi,

Could you please assist how to move the gz files which are older than the 90 days from one folder to another folder ,before that it need to check the file system named "nfs" if size is less than 90 or not. If size is above 90 then it shouldn't perform file move and exit the script throwing log that file system is above threshold level using shell script.

Here NFS is the shared folder in my server.

eg:

source_folder /opt/psoft/PT8.47/webserv/peoplesoft/applications/peoplesoft/PSIGW/msgLog.gz

destination_folder /opt/psft

That is quite scarse a specification, leaving quite some details open and targets for guesswork from our side. E.g. why should the "nfs" file system be checked, as it is not part of the destination path, and for what, 90 files/bytes/percent? Where is the "log" pointing to?

You are following these fora for a year and a half now; you must have stumbled across solutions for similar or identical problems. So - any attempts/ideas/thoughts from your side? What tools would you prefer to deploy?
