Hi it should run only every 9th time the script is running.If the file is there yes we need to execute hi and quit
This is an example of what is called "inter-process communication" because one process (the program to be started) needs some information of another process (the last instance of the program and when it ran lastly). There are only so many means for such inter-process communication:
- semaphores
- shared memory
- message queues
In this case we need a "semaphore". Not a "UNIX semaphore" (in UNIX there is a certain OS feature implementing semaphores), but something alike. We simply put a file somewhere with the "UNIX date", the numbers of seconds passed since Jan 1st 1970, of when the program ran the last time:
Now we just need to read this file if it is there (otherwise we are running for the first time) and make the starting of the program conditional to that. Notice that 10800 = 3x3600, 3 hours in seconds and 4294967295 is 2^^32-1:

Hi,
I've written a ksh script that read a file and parse/filter/format each line. The script runs as expected but it runs for 24+ hours for a file that has 2million lines.

DateTime date_create NULL ([string $time = "now"], [DateTimeZone $timezone])
Returns new DateTime object.
PARAMETERS
o $time
-A date/time string. Valid formats are explained in Date and Time Formats. Enter NULL here to obtain the current time when using
the $timezone parameter.
o $timezone
- A DateTimeZone object representing the timezone of $time. If $timezone is omitted, the current timezone will be used.

EXAMPLES
Example #1
DateTime.__construct(3) example
Object oriented style
<?php
try {
$date = new DateTime('2000-01-01');
} catch (Exception $e) {
echo $e->getMessage();
exit(1);
}
echo $date->format('Y-m-d');
?>
Procedural style
<?php
$date = date_create('2000-01-01');
if (!$date) {
$e = date_get_last_errors();
foreach ($e['errors'] as $error) {
echo "$error
";
}
exit(1);
}
echo date_format($date, 'Y-m-d');
?>
The above examples will output:
2000-01-01
Example #2
Intricacies of DateTime.__construct(3)
<?php
// Specified date/time in your computer's time zone.
$date = new DateTime('2000-01-01');
echo $date->format('Y-m-d H:i:sP') . "
";
// Specified date/time in the specified time zone.
$date = new DateTime('2000-01-01', new DateTimeZone('Pacific/Nauru'));
echo $date->format('Y-m-d H:i:sP') . "
";
// Current date/time in your computer's time zone.
$date = new DateTime();
echo $date->format('Y-m-d H:i:sP') . "
";
// Current date/time in the specified time zone.
$date = new DateTime(null, new DateTimeZone('Pacific/Nauru'));
echo $date->format('Y-m-d H:i:sP') . "
";
// Using a UNIX timestamp. Notice the result is in the UTC time zone.
$date = new DateTime('@946684800');
echo $date->format('Y-m-d H:i:sP') . "
";
// Non-existent values roll over.
$date = new DateTime('2000-02-30');
echo $date->format('Y-m-d H:i:sP') . "
";
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
2000-01-01 00:00:00-05:00
2000-01-01 00:00:00+12:00
2010-04-24 10:24:16-04:00
2010-04-25 02:24:16+12:00
2000-01-01 00:00:00+00:00
2000-03-01 00:00:00-05:00
