Ah ok, so you want to remember which last status it had. Yep you could just create a lock file, that keeps the latest status in it which will be tested against the actual status. Also I would set a lock to avoid running the script more than 1 times. If you stop it with a kill, you will have to manually remove the .lck file - maybe can put a trap in there for this.

I might write it for example like this:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
#
# Skript to check DB status and send an email as warning
#
# Error codes:
# 0     ok
# 1     already running or lock file left over
#
# v1.0, 27.07.11
