Problem Statement

Due to an accidental data mix-up, user data was unintentionally mingled on Nautilus App Server 2 at the /home/usersdata location by the Nautilus production support team in Stratos DC. To rectify this, specific user data needs to be filtered and relocated. Here are the details:

  • Locate all files (excluding directories) owned by user mark within the /home/usersdata directory on App Server 2. Copy these files while preserving the directory structure to the /beta directory

Solution

  1. SSH into the server and switch to the root user:
ssh steve@stapp02
sudo su

2.Locate all files owned by user mark within the /home/usersdata , Copy /beta directory. To copy files owned by the user mark from /home/usersdata to /beta while preserving the directory structure using only the find command, you can use the following approach.

find /home/usersdata/ -type f  -user mark -exec cp {} /beta \;

3.Verify if the files got copied:

ls /beta/ | wc -l
