Those are some long questions
I'll attempt the first. It sounds fairly simple.
You need to get the current time stamp in your initial script and pass that as an argument to your 3 scripts.
Code:
TIMESTAMP=`date +%H%M%S`
#Or whichever format you prefer it in
./$POS_SCRIPT/dw_postodw_pharmacysplit.ksh $TIMESTAMP
./$POS_SCRIPT/dw_postodw_controlfile.ksh $TIMESTAMP
./$POS_SCRIPT/dw_postodw_cpfiles.ksh $TIMESTAMP
In each of these 3 scripts, you would write:
Code:
TIMESTAMP=$1
That should give you the common time stamp throughout all 3 scripts.
Regarding your second sub question, error handling should be done within the files itself. If you encounter an error, you could choose to exit with a specific error code (You can have an error code to error text mapping somewhere).
Something like:
Code:
exit 1
You can handle the return status best in your initial script itself.
Code:
TIMESTAMP=`date +%H%M%S`
#Or whichever format you prefer it in
RETURN_CODE=`$POS_SCRIPT/dw_postodw_pharmacysplit.ksh $TIMESTAMP`
if [ $RETURN_CODE -ne 0 ]
then
#ECHO ERROR TO LOG FILE
fi
RETURN_CODE=`$POS_SCRIPT/dw_postodw_controlfile.ksh $TIMESTAMP`
if [ $RETURN_CODE -ne 0 ]
then
#ECHO ERROR TO LOG FILE
fi
RETURN_CODE=`$POS_SCRIPT/dw_postodw_cpfiles.ksh $TIMESTAMP`
if [ $RETURN_CODE -ne 0 ]
then

amanda-scripts - Configuring and using the Script API
DESCRIPTION
The Script API is a flexible system for invoking user-supplied scripts at various points in the execution of Amanda. This manual page
describes the operation and configuration of the API. For help writing Script API scripts, see http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Script_API.
SCRIPTS
This section lists the scripts included with Amanda, see the individual man page for instructions on using them. For complete How-To
information, consult the Amanda wiki at http://wiki.zmanda.com.
o amzfs-snapshot(8), - create/destroy zfs snapshot.
o script-email(8), - send email.
Script properties work just like application properties: they are insensitive to case, and - (dash) and _ (underscore) may be used
interchangeably.
SCRIPTS OUTPUT PROPERTY
A pre-dle-amcheck, pre-dle-estimate or pre-dle-backup executed on the client can output property on stdout that are sent to the
application. If the output line matches "PROPERTY str1 str2", Amanda sets a property called "str1" by the value of "str2", that property is
sent to the application.
