I suggest reading up on the
test- command (this is effectively what
[..] is). You have many possibilities to formulate various conditions on when and when not to run a script, you just need to implement them. It is far easier and in the long run less time-consuming for you to learn that (takes about 10 minutes) than to ask over and over again like you are doing now.
But first you should define what "script fails" means: does it exit with a non-zero return code? Does it write a log with an error message? Does it (not) produce a file? The secret of writing good scripts is to first make up your mind what
exactly you want to do and under which conditions, then to define
exactly what it is you want to do: "i need a file today" is less exact than "i need a file every second friday of the month" and this in turn is less exact than "i need a file every second friday only if this other file is up to date execpt for ....". Nobody here knows what you need as well as you do, so do your work first and we will gladly help with the rest.
I hope this helps.

qrerun
qrerun(1B) PBS qrerun(1B)
NAME
qrerun - rerun a pbs batch job
SYNOPSIS
qrerun [-f] job_identifier ...
DESCRIPTION
The qrerun command directs that the specified jobs are to be rerun if possible.
To rerun a job is to terminate the session leader of the job and return the job to the queued state in the execution queue in which the job
currently resides.
If a job is marked as not rerunable then the rerun request will fail for that job. If the mini-server running the job is down, or the
rejects the request, the Rerun Job batch request will return a failure unless -f is used.
Using -f violates IEEE Batch Processing Services Std and should be handled with great care. It should only be used under exceptional cir-
cumstances. Best practice is to fix the problem mini-server host and letting qrerun run normally. The previous nodes may need manual
cleaning. See the -r option on the qsub and qalter commands.
OPERANDS
The qrerun command accepts one or more job_identifier operands of the form:
sequence_number[.server_name][@server]
STANDARD ERROR
The qrerun command will write a diagnostic message to standard error for each error occurrence.
EXIT STATUS
Upon successful processing of all the operands presented to the qrerun command, the exit status will be a value of zero.
If the qrerun command fails to process any operand, the command exits with a value greater than zero.
