Hello everyone,
I wrote a simple script (ksh) that I would like to be able to execute no matter where in the directory structure I am sitting at.
I typed
to retrieve my path info and looking at that I decided the directory where to place my script. I copied the scripts to that directory and I made it executable.
When I am navigating through my directory structure I am not able to invoke that script!
Is there something else I need to do before I can actually be able to have unix find the script in my $PATH. Right now I can only execute it if I am sitting in the directory where the script resides or by giving the full path at time of invocation.
Hope you can help.
Thanks

SCRIPT-EMAIL(8) System Administration Commands SCRIPT-EMAIL(8)NAME
script-email - Amanda script to send email notifications
DESCRIPTION
script-email is an Amanda script implementing the Script API. It should not be run by users directly. It sends a notification email to the
addresses specified in the MAILTO property.
PROPERTIES
This section lists the properties that control script-email's functionality. See amanda-scripts(7) for information on the Script API,
script configuration.
MAILTO
List of email addresses that will receive an email on command execution. It is a multi-valued property:
property "MAILTO" "amanda@domain.com" "sysadmin@domain.com" "amandauser@domain.com"
EXAMPLE
In this example, script-email is scheduled to be run before the DLE, on the server. The unqualified email address amanda will be passed to
the email system unchanged. The script is then attached to a dumptype, which can then be specified for any DLEs which require
notification.
define script-tool pre-email {
comment "email me before this DLE is backed up"
plugin "script-email"
execute-on pre-dle-backup
execute-where server
property "mailto" "amanda"
}
define dumptype user-tar-email {
user-tar
script "pre-email"
}
