General :: Check Status Of A Shell Script?
Aug 2, 2010
I'm running CentOS 5.5 and have created an init script. The start of the script contains:
# Source function library.
if [ -f /etc/init.d/functions ]; then
. /etc/init.d/functions
fi
The start bit works fine, but I'm having problems with the status and stop part:
status)
echo -n "Status of script: "
status "/bin/sh /path/to/script.sh"
RETVAL=$?
echo
;;
In PS AUX the command appears as "/bin/sh /path/to/script.sh" and I can see the PID. But when I run:
./my_init_script status
It says the script is not running. Should I be using the /bin/sh bit, or just the full script path, or just the script filename?
The stop part of the init script utilises "killproc". Again what command should I be using to successfully kill all occurrances of the script?

1) check if a mouse button is pressed down. I need to check this status of mouse button again and again inside a loop. Depending on the status, some function will be called. OR
2) check if some key of the keyboard is pressed down. I need to check this status of 'key' again and again inside a loop. Depending on the status, some function will be called.
Either of the two above will serve my purpose.
I am using Ubuntu 10.10.

I have six linux Centos 5.0 Servers. I had to configure the snmp client. I just created a pretty basic configuration snmpd.conf file
Code: rocommunity CompanyCom 10.1.1.10
I installed all of these
lm_sensors-2.10.7-4.el5.i386.rpm
net-snmp-libs-5.3.2.2-7.el5.i386.rpm
net-snmp-5.3.2.2-7.el5.i386.rpm
net-snmp-utils-5.3.2.2-7.el5.i386.rpm
4 of them are working fine, the application installed on 10.1.1.10 can query 4 servers but I got 2 Linux Centos that are in a DMZ, and my networking team already opened ports and configured NAT but the SNMP Server 10.1.1.10 is not able to query them how can I check the snmpd is really running apart from service snmpd status? might be related with the DMZ configuration?

I have two linux servers, they are backup together.
1. Server 1 have 3 files with name: file1, file2, file3 in the path: /etc/sysconfig/network-script/.
2. Server 2 have 3 files with name and path are the same as server 1.
- How to make a script to copy 3 files at server1 to overwrite on server2. But before overwrite, this script will check and compare the last modified date of these 3 files(on server1 and server2). if the modified date of file1, file2 or file3 on server1 is newer than 3 files on server2 then overwrite process will do, if not, will do nothing.
- see my script as below: it works find now but just overwrite. not check last modified date.

I need to make a SQL script and call it from Unix (bash) shell.
Code:
sqlplus vikas/vikas <<END
spool /oracle/vikas/output.txt
command 1
[code]....
This runs perfectly, but my problem is that if a command fails, the other commands keeps on running. I need to keep a check that when a command fails the script is exited. In unix we have an option of echo $? to check the status of previous command, But how to accomplish this SQL.

dd is wiping part of the hard drive( 270GB partition ) with /dev/urandom for quite some hours, is there anyway to check the proccess? like speed of the process etc., I read someone doing that with another drive while having access to other terminal because of the system, but since this is directly from the install dvd, I've no clue if there's anyway to do that or not. I'm asking that mainly because:
1) I prefer run things with some kind of verbose mode
2) I accentaly opened the dvd driver (yes I know, but I forgot the install dvd was inside of it), but I closed it right after it, no errors, but it may have stopped working and has just the _ clicking?

I have an Ubuntu server in which a file is dumped every hour and a new file for the next hour and the process continues. If there is any problem due to which the creation of file stops then empty files are created every minute till the process is killed & started again. I need help to make a shell script to check if the empty files are being created and then kill the process and start it again.It would be a great help if anyone can help me regarding this.

I'm using Debian squeeze and for an assignement, i have create 2 virtual pdf cups printers. Both are working very well. To test the different administion command; i try to disable one of the printer and move his queue file to the second one. I'm able to do it easily.
Now, i wish to write a bash script that wil test the status of the printer. So that,if the printer is disable, it just execute the "move" script. Is there a way to know the status of a cups printer and use that information in a script?
For example, a command/function that can return "O" is the cups printer is enable and "1" if not.

In Zentyal, it showed me active drives, if the array was degraded, and if there was any syncing happening when the array was building. How can I check that without Zentyal? Is there a terminal command or an application I can install to tell me the same information?

I would need to monitor the status of an electric relay. To do so I was thinking the serial port and perl (as I don't know C ) how to check if a switch connected to a serial port is open or closed. Here is my plan, I'll plug a electric relay on the electric network and monitor the state of the switch. if the switch is closed, that mean that we are on the electric network if the switch is open that mean that we are on our diesel power generator.
PS: There will be no voltage input involve (although I can if that's required)
I'm planning to use this with Nagios to know if we are on the electric network or on our diesel power generator.

I'm using Squeeze, and haven't seen an update in the Debian repo for some time. Seeing as it's due for release soon (September), can we expect some updates in the near future? I had been using Gnome Shell in Ubuntu with much success, including compiling my own. These days, I cannot afford the bandwidth, and have encountered an unknown problem [URL] under Debian Squeeze. Currently, I'm experiencing a very annoying flickering issue using the repo version which I know does not exist anymore in the current gnome development. To have at least one update now before the release date would be nice to see.

yesterday i tried to install bt4 from alongside ubuntu 10.04. Unfortunately the DVD had some errors and the installation stopped. Everything was fine till then, even the GRUB was working(i guess!) but when i tried to log into my Ubuntu it gave me an error... " /usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited with error status 256" also there was a popup like "gnome power management was not properly installed ....blah blah blah Contact you network admin"
i have only one user on that system. i tried the single user mode but no success... i then tried to Ctrl+Alt+F1-F6 no success... can't switch to command line(this is my display problem i guess)
i have now decided to install a fresh install but i do need to take the backup. What all should i copy to the new install so that i get the same feel as before?

I would like to implement something when a server is offline for whatever reason. For example. I got my own DNS servers and webservers. I would like it if the users goes to www.somedomain.com and the server it is actually on is down for maint. or For whatever not able to respond. What can be done so that if the server isn't able to be contacted that it can point to either a another server or the dns somehow can display a page stating who to contact to report a problem or to let them know its down for maint. And can goto a site to check the status or whatever.
