retry process in ftp
hi #!/bin/bash
SERVER=10.89.40.35
USER=xyz
PASSWD=xyz
ftp -in $SERVER<<EOF
user $USER $PASSWD
mkdir PPL
cd /path of remote dir
lcd /path of local dir
hash
bin
put <file name>
bye
<<EOF
The above ftp script i have to schedule in crontab at a particular instance of time run daily.
In the above ftp script i have to implement a retry process.
So that in the case if the transfer is stopped in between ftp for any reasons then after a gap of 15 mins the ftp session again retry to do the ftp.
This is done so that the person at remote server where the files are to be dumped get an idea that some problem lies in connectivity if ftp fails..after a no. of retries .
PLS if anybody cld help in writin the code for it..
