It is quite possible that the output from your dsjob command contains tab characters rather than spaces, and that would cause grep not to find your strings.
Try this as your grep expression:
That should search for the enough of the desired words, in order, without regard to intermediate whitespace (tabs or spaces) or special characters like the colon.
Unfortunately the date command is very inconsistent from version to version of *NIX. To that end, provided your awk supports the systime() and strftime() functions, this is probably the easiest way to get 'yesterday' in the string format that you want. It computes the current time, subtracts a day (86400 seconds) and finally formats it. The string is put into the shell variable "yesterday" which you can use on a grep command:
Given that, use egrep to match both lines, and test the number of matched lines rather than the return code to determine if there was a "hit."
