Hi

I am currently using a bash script.

I want to create a script when I am checking if apmccctrl.sh is running & if it isn't running I want to be able to start it up and check again.

If the shell script is running I want to be able to return a status of "running" or number 1 for example.
If found it isn't running I want it to try and start it up and wait 60 seconds to then again check if it has started up successfully or not.
If failed again I want it to return "not running or 0 for example so we are able to alert on it.
Hope this makes it easier to explain.

I am using Putty version 0.63

This is what I have created so far but even if I shutdown the apmccctrl.sh I still get a return code of 1.

Code:
acc_status_check=$(${ACC_HOME}/apmccctrl.sh status)

if acc_status_check="CA APM Command Center Agent Controller is running"

then
acc_status="1"

else
/opt/ca/APMCommandCenterController/apmccctrl.sh start
sleep 60
/opt/ca/APMCommandCenterController/apmccctrl.sh
if acc_status_check="CA APM Command Center Agent Controller is not running."
then
acc_status="2"

fi
fi

echo $acc_status

Code:
[apm@ccbapprts1 enterprisemanager]$ ${ACC_HOME}/apmccctrl.sh status
CA APM Command Center Agent Controller is running: PID:23414, Wrapper:STARTED, Java:STARTED
[apm@ccbapprts1 enterprisemanager]$ ./epagent_enterprise_manager_metrics.sh
1
[apm@ccbapprts1 enterprisemanager]$ ${ACC_HOME}/apmccctrl.sh stop

apm

APM(1)																	    APM(1)

NAME

       apm - interface with the APM subsystem

SYNOPSIS

       apm [ -VvmMsSdin ]

DESCRIPTION

       This  command  requires	the Advanced Power Management subsystem.  If run without arguments it reads /proc/apm and presents the output in a
       human-readable format.

       Given a -S or -s option it requests that the machine be put into the APM standby or the APM  suspend  state,  respectively.   For  a  brief
       description of these states, see apmd(8).

OPTIONS

       -V, --version
	      Print the version of the program and exit.

       -v, --verbose
	      Also  print  version  information  for the APM subsystem.  The APM subsystem consists of power-management hardware, firmware usually
	      referred to as the APM BIOS and a driver in the operating system kernel.

       -m, --minutes
	      Print the time remaining as a number of minutes.	The default is to print the time remaining in "hours:minutes" format.

       -M, --monitor
	      Continuously monitor and update the status information.  Assumes that the standard output is a terminal.

       -S, --standby
	      Request that the machine be put into the APM standby state.

       -s, --suspend
	      Request that the machine be put into the APM suspend state.

       -d, --debug
	      Print APM status information in a format more useful for debugging.  Implies -v.
