What are the "parent" and "child" batches?
Actually the main script which i posted yesterday is saimptlogi_batch.sh and i am submitting this script in a job scheduler call "AppWorx" ....What this script does is it consume some file called RTLOG* in the $MMPOS directory.After consuming it will rename the file with .1 extension..Each file consumption takes atleast 2:30 to 3:mins...so when I am submitting this script which is named as saimptlogi_batch in appworx,it is starting another sub module call saimptlogi which is for an individual RTLOG file...Once one saimptlogi finishes another saimptlogi is starting...like this it will run one after another till the number of files present in rtlogfiles.txt.....and till all the files will not be consumed the main batch saimptlogi_batch should be running......when I am submitting the main batch saimptlogi_batch,it is starting the sub modules called saimptlogi but it itself is getting finished in few seconds....I want the main batch to run till the last RTLOG consumption...

Why are you using " logfile=$(ls -ltr|tail -1|cut -c 55-70)" ? Don't you know the name of the logfile? How can you be sure it is the most recently modified entry in this directory?
it is the most recently modified entry in this directory?
Though I know the logfile name...it will recent day name and it looks like below:
-rw-rw-rw- 1 appworx dba 1024 Mar 4 10:03 Mar_04.log
Only this log files will be there in this directory and ls -ltr|tail -1 will get me the last modified file..

shell-quote
SHELL-QUOTE(1p) User Contributed Perl Documentation SHELL-QUOTE(1p)
NAME
shell-quote - quote arguments for safe use, unmodified in a shell command
SYNOPSIS
shell-quote [switch]... arg...
DESCRIPTION
shell-quote lets you pass arbitrary strings through the shell so that they won't be changed by the shell. This lets you process commands
or files with embedded white space or shell globbing characters safely. Here are a few examples.
EXAMPLES
ssh preserving args
When running a remote command with ssh, ssh doesn't preserve the separate arguments it receives. It just joins them with spaces and
passes them to "$SHELL -c". This doesn't work as intended:
ssh host touch 'hi there' # fails
It creates 2 files, hi and there. Instead, do this:
cmd=`shell-quote touch 'hi there'`
ssh host "$cmd"
This gives you just 1 file, hi there.
process find output
It's not ordinarily possible to process an arbitrary list of files output by find with a shell script. Anything you put in $IFS to
split up the output could legitimately be in a file's name. Here's how you can do it using shell-quote:
eval set -- `find -type f -print0 | xargs -0 shell-quote --`
debug shell scripts
shell-quote is better than echo for debugging shell scripts.
debug() {
[ -z "$debug" ] || shell-quote "debug:" "$@"
}
With echo you can't tell the difference between "debug 'foo bar'" and "debug foo bar", but with shell-quote you can.
save a command for later
shell-quote can be used to build up a shell command to run later. Say you want the user to be able to give you switches for a command
you're going to run. If you don't want the switches to be re-evaluated by the shell (which is usually a good idea, else there are
things the user can't pass through), you can do something like this:
user_switches=
while [ $# != 0 ]
do
case x$1 in
x--pass-through)
[ $# -gt 1 ] || die "need an argument for $1"
user_switches="$user_switches "`shell-quote -- "$2"`
shift;;
# process other switches
esac
shift
done
# later
eval "shell-quote some-command $user_switches my args"
OPTIONS
--debug
Turn debugging on.
--help
Show the usage message and die.
--version
Show the version number and exit.
