Script for grepping status
I'm a newb so please be kind. I'm trying to write a script to check the status of a program running on a vncserver to know whether or not it has ended and if I need to restart the server. Here's what I've got and please I am a self taught scripter:
if [ ps ax | grep xterm | awk '{print $5}' = "xterm" ] then
serv-restart
fi
I've been searching and am not quite sure how to make work. Any hints or pointers is extremely appreciated.

config how to handle it. Unknown services are ignored.

restart
scriptmgr config.ini restart -a
scriptmgr config.ini restart job_name1 job_name2 ...
