Hi All,
I have a tricky problem. I need to write a shell script (bash) which identifies which week off the month it is. I need to create a partition each week. So for the first week (where first of the week is Monday) of March i want to create partition_march_01 and for the second partition partition_march_02 etc.
I also need to get the exact date into a variable which I can use an marker.
I have been looking at date and +%w which will give me the first day of the week, and +%W which will get me the number of week in the year. Is there a straight forward command I've missed that will tell me that its week 3 of May?
Thanking you all inadvance,
