Now I am planning to execute the qmhandle every hour and the status been mailed to me only, if the amount of mails in the queue meet certain criteria.

e.g. I need the notification been send only if the mails in the remote queue exceeds more than 1000 mails or in the local queue more than 10 mails.

Any help appreciated. Thank you.

The qmhandle will be executed with following command

./qmHandle -s

The out put may be:

Messages in local queue: 3
Messages in remote queue: 583

Code:

IFS=:
set -f
set -- $( ./qmHandle -s )

localeQ=$(( $2 ))
remoteQ=$(( $4 ))

if [ $localQ -gt 10 ] || [ $remoteQ -gt 1000 ]
then
   {
     printf "Messages in local queue: %d\n" $localQ
     printf "Messages in remote queue: %d\n" $remoteQ
    } | mail someone@example.com
fi

Depending on your system, you may need to use "mailx" instead of "mail".

qstart

qstart(8B)								PBS								qstart(8B)

NAME

       qstart - start pbs batch job processing at a destination

SYNOPSIS

       qstart destination ...

DESCRIPTION

       The  qstart  command directs that a destination should process batch jobs.  If the destination is an execution queue, the server will begin
       to schedule jobs that reside in the queue for execution.  If the destination is a routing queue, the server will begin to route	jobs  from
       that queue.

       In order to execute qstart, the user must have PBS Operation or Manager privilege.

OPERANDS

       The qstart command accepts one or more destination operands.  The operands are one of three forms:
	    queue
	    @server
	    queue@server
       If queue is specified, the request is to start that queue at the default server.  If the @server form is given, the request is to start all
       queues at that server.  If a full destination identifier, queue@server, is given, the request is to start the  named  queue  at	the  named
       server.

STANDARD ERROR

       The qstart command will write a diagnostic message to standard error for each error occurrence.

EXIT STATUS

       Upon successful processing of all the operands presented to the qstart command, the exit status will be a value of zero.

       If the qstart command fails to process any operand, the command exits with a value greater than zero.
