I have used variations of this code for over 10 years.

Code:
put abcdefgh.ltr /u2/email/temp
put abcdefgh.mmo /u2/email/temp
put abcdefgh.job /u2/email/requests

Code:
#!/bin/ksh

rm /u2/email/$BATCH.pid

We use 8.3 file names.
The file name extension for files in the request directory is used to create different queues: job for regular processing, ovn for overnight, rsh for rush. There is a separate cron job for each extension.
The process can be stopped by manually removing the pid file.
If a previous pid file exists, this does not necessarily mean that the previous invocation failed. It could be that there were more jobs to process than could be processed in the interval between invocations.
