unable to grep the running processes.

Hi All,

We have a shell script(ODS_Load)which loads the data from perticular flat file to oracle table invoking sqlplus based on the parameter.

When we execute the script(ODS_Load) independently, script is working fine and able to load the tables successfully.

We invoke(ODS_Load) with parameter from another script(Wrapper_ODS_Load), which checks if there are any ODS_Load happening for perticular feed if not then it invokes the ODS_load script. If the ODS_Load is happening then it does not again invoke ODS_Load.

Code:

#!/bin/bash
 
CONFLICT=`pgrep -f "ODS_Load $1"`
[ ! "$CONFLICT" ] && ODS_Load $1 &

But the pgrep -f "ODS_Load $1" is not returning any result even though the script ODS_Load is running. Can someone help us debug this issue?

Thanks and Regards
Nagaraja Akkivalli

killall5

KILLALL5(8)						Linux System Administrator's Manual					       KILLALL5(8)

NAME

       killall5 -- send a signal to all processes.

SYNOPSIS

       killall5 -signalnumber [-o omitpid[,omitpid..]]	[-o omitpid[,omitpid..]..]

DESCRIPTION

       killall5  is the SystemV killall command. It sends a signal to all processes except kernel threads and the processes in its own session, so
       it won't kill the shell that is running the script it was called from. Its primary (only) use is in the rc scripts found in the /etc/init.d
       directory.

OPTIONS

       -o omitpid
	      Tells killall5 to omit processes with that process id.

NOTES

       killall5 can also be invoked as pidof, which is simply a (symbolic) link to the killall5 program.

EXIT STATUS

       The  program  return  zero  if  it  killed  processes.  It return 2 if no process were killed, and 1 if it was unable to find any processes
       (/proc/ is missing).

SEE ALSO

       halt(8), reboot(8), pidof(8), killproc(8)
