Hi, maybe some scripting genius gonna help me :D
I need to move some file from one directory to other with some exclusions.
Ex: move files from "/data/product/" to "/data/archives/2005" while
the "*.dat" file/dirs stay in the right place.
$mv /data/product/* !(/data/product/*.dat) /data/archives/2005
Try:
find /data/product -name "*.dat" -prune -exec mv \{\} \
/data/archives/2005 \;
You might try using "cp" instead of "mv", just to test it. If it works,
then "find /data/product -name "*.dat" -exec rm -rf \{\} \;" to delete
the files. Note that the target directory MUST exist before you run
the first command.
