new to unix and scripting, and i'm trying to set up a simple "if" script to create a seperate flag file dependant on success.
So far i have the following ($5 is a variable passed to the script from the backup job)
Code:
if [ '$5' == '0' ]
then
touch /u03/backups/backup_ended.flag
else
touch /u03/backups/backup_failed.flag
fi
I dont have any troubleshooting i can share, as the script can only be started at the end of the backup..
thanks
Rich
