pattern matching problem

Code:
FilesToBackup='*.track* *.xml *.vm* *.gz Trace* TRACE* "*core*" *.out fcif_data_* esi_error_* *.rollback *.sed R.* APStatus_*
log* *.output* send_mail* downenv* check_env* intaspurge_db_* sqlnet.log *.rpt *.html *.csv "*TSC*"'

and i am using it like this-
echo Moving files from $(pwd):
        filesclause=$(/bin/echo "$FilesToBackup" | sed -e "s/ /\' -o -name \'/g")
        filesclause="-name '$filesclause'"
        # The following find will search the current dir and all subdirs except only name "centers"
        # Each file that is older than 1 day will be checked against the $FilesToBackup list
        # Those that match will be added to the tmpfile intasclean$$
        if [[ $dir != "." ]]; then
                eval find . -type f \\\( $filesclause \\\) | grep -v "^./centers" > $TEMPDIR/intasclean$$
        else
                echo $FilesToBackup | xargs /bin/ls -1 > $TEMPDIR/intasclean$$ 2>/dev/null
        fi

i have to look for core and TSC to remove the files or to take the backup with the script. When i run the script i am not getting any file with core and TSC even i created some files with touch. Is there any pattern matching problem in this.

Thanks...

Hi Namish,

Use the following to take backup of your files(or you can use 'mv' to move the files)

#***********************
#!/bin/bash
FILENAMES="*.track* *.xml *.vm* *.gz Trace* TRACE* "*core*" *.out fcif_data_* esi_error_* *.rollback *.sed R.* APStatus_*
log* *.output* send_mail* downenv* check_env* intaspurge_db_* sqlnet.log *.rpt *.html *.csv *TSC*"

for i in $FILENAMES
do
echo $i
find /path/to/search/directory/ -name "$i" -exec cp {} /path/to/backup/directory/ \;
done
exit 0
#******************************************************


Regards,
Vinod
