Hi,
 
Sorry for the slightly non-Oracle post.
 
I am after a UNIX code snippet that will help me copy archive logs to another directory BUT not if they already exist. So if only 2 archive logs are generated between script runs only the two new ones should copy. I know I can do this using sysdate - "time interval"  but I am trying to avoid that.
 
Thanks in advance,
 
Sujatha Madan.
