Use find command in Unix to find the required files

During language installation, one of the step is "Importing of Language part of support packages after language installation".

It requires all the old support packages to be present in EPS/in (default) directory. But there were many support packages missing. Downloading was not the option as it required approval from Solution Manager and we don't have access for the same.

So, the only option left was to search where is the location of the missing support packages not present in /usr/sap/trans/EPS/in directory. Actually we were looking for CAR files.

The command that came handy was

find . | grep "KGPHD*"

we were in location /usr/sap/trans/EPS and we gave this command

ultimately we were able to locate the missing support packages in directory /usr/sap/trans/EPS/languages_stack_01_17
