Monitor and restart UNIX process
Hi all,

Tearing my hair out..!

I have a requirement to monitor and restart a unix process via a simple watchdog script.

I have the following 3 scripts that dont work for me..

script 1 (only produces 1 output if process is up or not)
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Code:
#!/bin/bash

PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin

ps cax | grep tnsrec > /dev/null
#echo $?
if [ $? -eq 1 ]; then
  bash /opt/oracle/scripts/tnsrec CP10C > tnsrec.log 2>&1 &
  exit
else
  exit
fi

script 2 (only produces 1 output if process is up or not)
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Code:
#!/bin/sh

PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin

TNSPROC=`ps -ef|grep tnsrec | awk '{if ($8 !~ /grep/) print $2}'`

if ! [ -n "${TNSPROC}" ] ; then
  nohup /opt/oracle/scripts/tnsrec CP10C > tnsrec.log 2>&1 &
fi

exit 0

script 3 only produces 1 output..
--------------------------------------
Code:
#!/bin/bash

PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin

ps -ef |grep -v grep | grep tnsrec > /dev/null 2>&1

case "$?" in
  0)
  true
  ;;
  1)
  bash /opt/oracle/scripts/tnsrec CP10C > tnsrec.log 2>&1 &
esac
exit

What am I doing wrong?

Any one any ideas for a simple watchdog script..

Thanks in advance,

jd

service

service(8)						      System Manager's Manual							service(8)

NAME

       service - run a System V init script

SYNOPSIS

       service SCRIPT COMMAND [OPTIONS]

       service --status-all

       service --help | -h | --version

DESCRIPTION

       service	runs a System V init script in as predictable an environment as possible, removing most environment variables and with the current
       working directory set to /.

       The SCRIPT parameter specifies a System V init script, located in /etc/init.d/SCRIPT.  The  supported  values  of  COMMAND  depend  on  the
       invoked	script.  service passes COMMAND and OPTIONS to the init script unmodified.  All scripts should support at least the start and stop
       commands.  As a special case, if COMMAND is --full-restart, the script is run twice, first with the stop command, then with the start  com-
       mand.

       service --status-all runs all init scripts, in alphabetical order, with the status command.

EXIT CODES

       service calls the init script and returns the status returned by it.

FILES

       /etc/init.d
	      The directory containing System V init scripts.

ENVIRONMENT

       LANG, TERM
	      The only environment variables passed to the init scripts.

SEE ALSO

       /etc/init.d/skeleton,
       update-rc.d(8),
       init(8),
       invoke-rc.d(8).
