Thank You Robin.

I wanted the IF.. THEN.. ELSE block to continue executing every 10 minutes until grep command does not see the the string "Processing" in this file.

Thank You Junior Helper. I think your solution works fine for my requirement. I need to test it in my real life script. THANK YOU.

I was under the impression that the number mentioned for sleep command is in minutes not seconds. Just realized that I was wrong

ie.

sleep 30 means sleep for 30 seconds not 30 minutes .

One more question:
Why are you redirecting the output of grep -v Processing status.txt to bit bucket &>/dev/null ?
