I guess the following code snippet can help

Code:
#setting counter value
timeElapsed=1800
while [ "$messag" != "P" ]
loop
    sleep 1800 
    messag=/status.sql
    #incrementinc counter value
    timeElapsed=`expr ${timeElapsed} + 1800`
    # checking the counter value is equal to 8 hours (28800 seconds)
    if [ ${timeElapsed}  -eq 28800 ]; then
       echo "8 Hour Time Out reached exiting !!!"
       #break or exit 0 as per your need
       exit 0
    fi
done

NAME
glutSpaceballRotateFunc - sets the Spaceball rotation callback for the current window. SYNTAX
void glutSpaceballRotateFunc(void (*func)(int x, int y, int z)); ARGUMENTS
func The new spaceball rotate callback function. DESCRIPTION
glutSpaceballRotateFunc sets the Spaceball rotate callback for the current window. The Spaceball rotate callback for a window is called when the window has Spaceball input focus (normally, when the mouse is in the window) and the user generates Spaceball rotations. The x, y, and z callback parameters indicate the rotation along the X, Y, and Z axes. The callback parameters are normalized to be within the range of -1800 to 1800 inclusive. Registering a Spaceball rotate callback when a Spaceball device is not available is ineffectual and not an error. In this case, no Space- ball rotate callbacks will be generated. Passing NULL to glutSpaceballRotateFunc disables the generation of Spaceball rotate callbacks. When a new window is created, no Spaceball rotate callback is initially registered. SEE ALSO
