Assuming that you have three scripts "a.sh" "b.sh" "c.sh" and there are three log file "a.log" "b.log" "c.log", and here is my opinion: Execution of b.sh depends on whether the last successful execution of a.sh. If execution of a.sh fails, it's unnecessary to execute b.sh;
If you agree that, here is my main workflow:
1. print a flag into a.log representing successful execution of a.sh.
2. before execution of b.sh, check whether a.sh executed successfully last time by using the flag in a.log
3. if a.sh executed successfully, execute b.sh
Here is my scripts: a.sh b.sh c.sh
Hope to help you
