Hi,
Hjava wrote:
since I spooling the select to the file, does grep or cat the error only work on the firs time, you run the script?? for example
day one: run script , sql select find error, write to file and sent mail out.
day two run script , sql did not find error , suppose not send mail out , but the file keep first day's record , there for still send mail out.Well, no, it won't send any mail day two, since you by doing
date > $LOGFILEresets the logfile, i.e. it's the same as removing the logfile at script start.
If you want to keep the log files for historical or other reasons, I suggest including a date or day-of-week-part in the file name, for instance
LOGFILE=$BASEDIR/logfile_$(date +%F).logwhich today would give you a file name of logfile_2012-03-02.log
by the way is that a way to select from table one if status ='error' mail out select from table two if status ='error' mail out in one script??Well, what you will get in your log file is purely up to which selects you do in your script file. Or I misunderstood your question?
