It sounds simple but here is the situation. I have DB2 creating log files. Each file name is consecutive.
Eg: S0000628.LOG S0000629.LOG S0000630.LOG S0000631.LOG S0000632.LOG S0000633.LOG S0000634.LOG S0000635.LOG S0000636.LOG S0000637.LOG S0000638.LOG S0000639.LOG S0000640.LOG The DBA wants me to remove all logs from the logging directory except the last 10 logs from the active log. For example. If the active log is S0000640.LOG, I am to remove all logs prior to S0000629.LOG. Can anyone give me an idea on how to do this. I do not want to do this by date. Only by name.
