files of size 0 need to be deleted inside a directory
Hiiii,
I have written a script which takes backup of some log files.
let say the backuplocation is ---
/abc/backuplocation
-rw-r--r-- 1 webmut2 spgroup 0 Jan 27 02:41 ansrpt23994.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 webmut2 spgroup 0 Jan 27 02:41 ansrpt3601.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 webmut2 spgroup 0 Jan 27 02:41 ansrpt3619.log
-rw-r----- 1 webmut2 spgroup 1551 Jan 25 07:13 ansrpt3619.log
after taking the backup i have to delete the files and then touch the files so that it create the file but with size 0 this is required in the script.
suppose the location of the files that need to backed up is---
/namish/logs
-rw-r--r-- 1 webmut2 spgroup 0 Jan 27 02:41 ansrpt23994.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 webmut2 spgroup 0 Jan 27 02:41 ansrpt3601.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 webmut2 spgroup 0 Jan 27 02:41 ansrpt3619.log
My script is working fine for all these but a problem is coming ie when i am touchng the files they are still under the directory /namish/logs,when again i ran the script,my script is picking these files(files with size 0) also and taking the backup.I do not want this because this time the size of the file will be 0.
My script should delete the files from the backuplocation whose size is 0.
The script is -----
Code:
l) BackupLocation="$OPTARG"
if [[ $BackupLocation != *backup ]]; then
echo "Appending backup subdirectories"
BackupLocation=$BackupLocation/backup
mkdir -p $BackupLocation >/dev/null 2>&1
if [[ $? != 0 ]];then
echo "First Create The Directory And Then Take backup"
fi
cd $FileLocation
pwd
cp -R $FilesToDelete $BackupLocation
list=$(ls *log*)
for files in $list
do
echo $files >namish1
rm -f $files
touch $files
done
else
mkdir -p $BackupLocation >/dev/null 2>&1
cp -R $FilesToDelete $BackupLocation
for files in $list
do
rm -$files
touch $files
done
if [[ ! -d $BackupLocation ]]; then
echo "Unable to make backup directory: $BackupLocation"
if [[ $IsCronJob -eq 1 ]]; then
SendMiddleTierCleanMail "Middletierclean error message" $mt_clean_errfile
fi
return $E_INT_MISSING_DIR
fi
fi

file1: string_test1.log
file2: string_test2.log

Assume I want to remove a whole directory tree beginning with /foo/bar/
The directory or sub-directories may contain files.
The top directory /foo/bar/ itself should not be deleted.
rm -f- r /foo/bar
does not work because it requires a directory tree without files.
