Question How to log start/stop time of ALL processes

Hi all,

I joined this forum today and this is my first question. I thank you all for viewing it. I will try to be brief.

The OS: HP-UX B.11.11 U 9000/800

There are lot of cron scheduled perl scripts running on this server, which do different things at different time. Some of them process incoming csv files (from some server), some scripts upload that data to a oracle DB, some anther scripts process that data and populate some other table and so on. I am sorry if this is confusing, but there are more than 300 scripts running (at different time per day). They can run for 10 seconds or 3 days.

Now my problem:

My boss wants to monitor all scripts' start-stop time in real time. Something like this

Script name----Start date---Start time---Stop date---Stop Time
Script1 mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss
....

(I need to do this for 3 different logins, which have different perl scripts scheduled).

Is there any way (without manually running PS command for each script) so that the start and stop time of all these scripts will be logged automatically?

I am sorry if I have broken any rule of this forum by putting this in wrong thread. I appreciate any input from all of you Unix Gurus.

uudemon(4)						     Kernel Interfaces Manual							uudemon(4)

NAME
uudemon.admin, uudemon.cleanu, uudemon.hour, uudemon.poll - Administrative shell scripts for polling remote systems, cleaning up spool directories, reporting status to the system administrator, and routine invocations of the uuxqt and uusched daemons SYNOPSIS
These shell scripts reside in the following directory: /usr/lib/uucp DESCRIPTION
All the scripts can be run from the command line or can be run automatically by the cron daemon. To automatically run the scripts, remove the comment character (#) from the beginning of the relevant line in the /var/spool/cron/crontabs/uucp file. This script reports status to the system administrator. It issues the uustat command to find out the status of uucp jobs. It mails the results to the uucp login ID. The script may be modified to send mail to any login ID such as the uucp administrative login ID (uucpa) or root. This script cleans up the /var/spool/uucp and /var/spool/uucppublic directories by running the uucleanup command. The uucleanup com- mand is run with the following parameters: -C7, -D7, X2, -o2, -W1. This script runs the uusched and uuxqt daemons in the background. This script polls the systems listed in the /usr/lib/uucp/Poll file. The uudemon.poll script should be scheduled before the uudemon.hour script. This allows uudemon.poll to create any command files before cron runs the uudemon.hour script. FILES
Contains the uudemon.admin, uudemon.cleanu, uudemon.hour and uudemon.poll files. Contains the uucp file. RELATED INFORMATION
Commands: cron(8), uucleanup(8), uusched(8), uuxqt(1) Files: /usr/lib/uucp delim off uudemon(4)
