Sorry, I wasn't clear. My issue is more to do with using the "tee" command which is causing the error checking (in the next if statement) to always pass regardless of the actual command whether it runs successfully or fails.
I understood your dilemma. That's why I gave that snippet. It is not only tee but for any chained commands: $? will report about the last command executed.
Is the following not your intention?
Code:
if [[ -s incoming.dat ]]; then
echo "data from incoming.dat file as follows:"
cat incoming.dat | tee -a execution.log
echo "Execution Log" | mail -s "Log File" -a execution.log info@abc.com
else
echo "Issue with incoming.dat: file not present or empty"
exit 1
fi

script-email - Amanda script to send email notifications
DESCRIPTION
script-email is an Amanda script implementing the Script API. It should not be run by users directly. It sends a notification email to the
addresses specified in the MAILTO property.
PROPERTIES
This section lists the properties that control script-email's functionality. See amanda-scripts(7) for information on the Script API,
script configuration.
MAILTO
List of email addresses that will receive an email on command execution. It is a multi-valued property:
property "MAILTO" "amanda@domain.com" "sysadmin@domain.com" "amandauser@domain.com"
EXAMPLE
In this example, script-email is scheduled to be run before the DLE, on the server. The unqualified email address amanda will be passed to
the email system unchanged. The script is then attached to a dumptype, which can then be specified for any DLEs which require
notification.
define script-tool pre-email {
comment "email me before this DLE is backed up"
plugin "script-email"
execute-on pre-dle-backup
execute-where server
property "mailto" "amanda"
}
define dumptype user-tar-email {
user-tar
script "pre-email"
}
