Some times, In Linux and UNIX, you may want to copy only the directory structure without copying the content and you want to create a similar directory structure in some other place. here is the quick way to do that.
Create the parent directory at wherever you want.
mkdir /where/ever/you/want
Example: mkdir /app01/data
switch to the directory from where you want to copy the directory structure.
cd /from/where/you/want/to/copy/directory/structure
Example: cd /app02/data
Now type the following command in the server terminal
find * -type d -exec mkdir /where/you/want/\{\} \;
Example: find * -type d -exec mkdir /app01/data/\{\} \;
Now the directory structure create in the new path where you specified as it is in the source.
