Email from script conditionally
I have a script that is run from the Cron 3 times an hour, here is the cron line:

02,22,42 7-18 * * 1-5 /hci/TEST/bin/myscript.ksh TEST 1>/hci/TEST/logs/myscript.info 2>/hci/TEST/logs/myscript

I am curious as to whether the time parameters from cron, ( 02, 22, 42 etc) can be accessed from the script? The script ultimately calls an Expect script to login to a sever and if I expereince a timeout I want to send an email but only once an hour. I was thinking I could valuate the parameter of 02 and then send email only for that run. Obviously I could just check against current time but was concerned that I might be off the minute by the time the SFTP script fails. If this is an easier way to do this I am open but either way I am curious as to whether the cron line can be accessed in the script.

Thx

David

SCSI_READY(8)							     SG3_UTILS							     SCSI_READY(8)

NAME

       scsi_ready - do SCSI TEST UNIT READY on devices

SYNOPSIS

       scsi_ready [--brief] [--help] [--verbose] DEVICE [DEVICE]*

DESCRIPTION

       This bash shell script calls the sg_turs utility on each given DEVICE. This will send a SCSI TEST UNIT READY command to each DEVICE. Disks,
       tape drives and DVD/BD players amongst others may respond to this SCSI command.

OPTIONS

       Arguments to long options are mandatory for short options as well.

       -b, --brief
	      for each DEVICE given output a line containing either '	 ready' or '	device not ready'. If DEVICE is  not  found  or  there	is
	      another serious error then an error message will appear instead.

       -h, --help
	      print out the usage message then exit.

       -v, --verbose
	      increase level or verbosity.

EXIT STATUS

       The  exit  status  of this script is 0 when it is successful. Otherwise the exit status is that of the last sg_turs utility called. See the
       sg3_utils(8) man page.
