RE: Else Loop Exiting Early

Sure (I didn't realize 1) that you could use the code tag and 2) that when posting, it would remove my formatting. Sorry!

Code:

check_ul_process()
{
   PROGRAM=8675309
   LONG_SLEEP=5
   SLEEP_TIME=1
   UL_PROCESS=$(ps -eaf | grep $PROGRAM | grep -v grep | wc -l)

   # if 8675309 isn't running
   # and it's not being run by cron,
   # re-check

   if [ $UL_PROCESS -eq 0 ]
   then
      while [ $LONG_SLEEP -gt 0 ]
      do
         if test $STARTED_BY_CRON = "False"
         then
            echo "\rTime to next check - $LONG_SLEEP\c"
         fi
         let LONG_SLEEP=LONG_SLEEP-1
         sleep $SLEEP_TIME
      done

      LONG_SLEEP=5
      check_ul_process

   elsif [ $UL_PROCESS -eq 0 -a $UL_FILE_TYPE = TEMP ]

   # if a ul_temp file exists
   # and 8675309 is not running,
   # log error and exit.

      echo $(expr substr $(hostname) 5 2 | tr 'a-z' 'A-Z') "::" $(date +'%D %T') ":: Exiting. A .ul_temp file exists, but the upload process isn't running." >> /ops/log/ulgen_report.log #~/test_report.log
      exit

   else

   # if 8675309 is running
   # and it's not being run by cron,
   # check it until it completes

      while [ $LONG_SLEEP -gt 0 ]
      do
         if test $STARTED_BY_CRON = "False"
         then
            echo "\rTime to next check - $LONG_SLEEP\c"
         fi
         let LONG_SLEEP=LONG_SLEEP-1
         sleep $SLEEP_TIME
      done

      LONG_SLEEP=5
      get_stats
      exit
   fi
}

cdslinvchk(8)						      System Manager's Manual						     cdslinvchk(8)

NAME

       cdslinvchk - Checks the CDSL inventory of the base operating system and layered applications.

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/cdslinvchk [log_file_path]

OPTIONS

       The path name to a location for the log file.  By default this will be /var/adm/cdsl_check_list.

DESCRIPTION

       Use  the cdslinvchk script to verify the current inventory of Context Dependent Symbolic Links (CDSLs) on a running system.  CDSLs are spe-
       cial symbolic links that enable a system to work in a cluster.  If CDSLs are accidentally removed, your system will not function  correctly
       in  a cluster.  While this is not a problem for stand-alone systems, you may not be able to add the system as a member of a working cluster
       at some future time.  You can run this script at any time or configure it to run at system start-up, or as a cron task.

       When you invoke the script, it checks the CDSLs on the running system against CDSLs of the installed inventory in /usr/.smdb and the  addi-
       tional  entries	in  /var/adm/cdsl_admin.inv, and ensures that each target file exists on the system as a properly-constituted CDSL. If the
       check is successful, the following message is displayed and the script terminates: Successful CDSL inventory check

       If the script finds inconsistencies in the inventory, warning messages are displayed on your terminal and logged to the default log file at
       /var/adm/cdsl_check_list.   You	can specify an alternate location for the log fill if required.  The script locates any modified, missing,
       or replaced CDSLs.  Note that the previous copy of the log file is renamed and retained for reference and is renamed by	appending  to  the
       filename.

       Refer  to  the  System Administration guide for information on recreating any missing or broken CDSLs.  Refer to the hier(5) reference page
       for an inventory of CDSLs.

   MESSAGES
       One or more of the following messages may be displayed and logged to the log file: Unable to create <pathname> report file  --  the  script
       was  not able to create a log file.  Check the target directory and security.  Expected CDSL: <cdsl_pathname> -> <pathname> CDSL Target has
       been modified to: <pathname> CDSL has been replaced with <pathname> CDSL is missing Failed CDSL inventory check. See details in <log file>

FILES

       Additional inventory file entries.  This file will not exist on all systems.  The current and previous log files for inventory  errors  and
       messages
