Full Discussion: Plz correct my syntax of shell script
Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Plz correct my syntax of shell script Post 302173614 by girish.batra on Friday 7th of March 2008 08:50:48 AM
Old 03-07-2008
Now I correct this script which is working fine. But still I am facing one problem which I am going to discuss now.
The problem is when I sftp some files (suppose there is 10 files I have to transfer through sftp) from one server
to another. During sftp if suppose network goes down then the process get hang and it does not transfer further files.
But if network goes down during comparing the files then only that file didnot get transfer and it will sftp other 9 files.

One strange thing also find that if suppose during transfer of files network goes down, if the network goes up within
5 min of goes down then it will sftp all the files. But if network goes up after five minutes say 10 min. then either
process get hang or sftp all the files execpt one during which network goes down.

I guess, I have to use trap command if the network goes down during transfer of files through sftp command. so that my
shell program should not hang. Could any body tell me how to use trap command so that my shell script won't get hang.



#! /bin/sh

exec < /girish/server # server file will contain only ip address of the other server
read IP

cd /anshu

for file in `ls -1rt`
do

while true
do

var=`ping $IP | cut -d " " -f3`

if [ $var = "alive" ]
then
echo $var
echo "lcd /anshu \n cd /gir \n mput $file \n bye" | sftp -B 131072 -v $IP 1>/girish/sftp1.log 2>/girish/sftp2.log
grep -i Uploading /girish/sftp1.log >/girish/output1
grep -i transfer /girish/sftp2.log >/girish/output2

echo "lcd /amit \n cd /gir \n mget $file \n bye" | sftp -B 131072 -v $IP 1>/girish/sftp3.log 2>/girish/sftp4.log
grep -i Uploading /girish/sftp3.log >/girish/output3
grep -i transfer /girish/sftp4.log >/girish/output4

var1=`cmp /anshu/$file /amit/$file`
echo $var1
var2=`cmp /girish/f2 /girish/f3` # value in f2 and f3 are identical which is a
echo $var2

if [ $var1 = $var2 ]
then
break
fi

else
sleep 60
fi

done

sftp-server

SFTP-SERVER(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 					    SFTP-SERVER(8)

NAME

     sftp-server -- SFTP server subsystem

SYNOPSIS

     sftp-server [-ehR] [-f log_facility] [-l log_level] [-u umask]

DESCRIPTION

     sftp-server is a program that speaks the server side of SFTP protocol to stdout and expects client requests from stdin.  sftp-server is not
     intended to be called directly, but from sshd(8) using the Subsystem option.

     Command-line flags to sftp-server should be specified in the Subsystem declaration.  See sshd_config(5) for more information.

     Valid options are:

     -e      Causes sftp-server to print logging information to stderr instead of syslog for debugging.

     -f log_facility
	     Specifies the facility code that is used when logging messages from sftp-server.  The possible values are: DAEMON, USER, AUTH,
	     LOCAL0, LOCAL1, LOCAL2, LOCAL3, LOCAL4, LOCAL5, LOCAL6, LOCAL7.  The default is AUTH.

     -h      Displays sftp-server usage information.

     -l log_level
	     Specifies which messages will be logged by sftp-server.  The possible values are: QUIET, FATAL, ERROR, INFO, VERBOSE, DEBUG, DEBUG1,
	     DEBUG2, and DEBUG3.  INFO and VERBOSE log transactions that sftp-server performs on behalf of the client.	DEBUG and DEBUG1 are
	     equivalent.  DEBUG2 and DEBUG3 each specify higher levels of debugging output.  The default is ERROR.

     -R      Places this instance of sftp-server into a read-only mode.  Attempts to open files for writing, as well as other operations that
	     change the state of the filesystem, will be denied.

     -u umask
	     Sets an explicit umask(2) to be applied to newly-created files and directories, instead of the user's default mask.

     For logging to work, sftp-server must be able to access /dev/log.	Use of sftp-server in a chroot configuration therefore requires that
     syslogd(8) establish a logging socket inside the chroot directory.

HISTORY

     sftp-server first appeared in OpenBSD 2.8.
