How to copy one particular date files.

[jeevarajkn]

Hi All

OS--HPUX 11.23

I have filesystem which contains only some trace files which is generating daily.

From yhis file systems how I can move particular date files to another filesystem

Eg:-From full Dec month files I want to copy only 20th Dec files to another filesystem.

Please help me...

Copy the file based on modification time? Or names? For the former, you can use touch and find to establish a range of times to move/copy:

If you need to specify a date you could do something like:

for file in $(ls -l |grep "Dec 20" |awk '{print $9}')
do
echo "copy file $file"
cp $file /$file
done
