Script - How to automatically start another process when the previous process ends?
Hi all,
I'm doing automation task for my team and I just started to learn unix scripting so please shed some light on how to do this:
1) I have 2 sets of datafiles - datafile A and B. These datafiles must be loaded subsequently and cannot be loaded concurrently.
2) So I loaded datafile A first. It will take long - hours to complete. I do not want to wait before I can load datafile B.
3) How to write script that will automatically pick up datafile B soon after datafile A finishes loading?
Please please help me.. I need to come out with this unix script as soon as possible.. Thanks guys..
btw I'm using ksh.
