Email shell script return code
Hi All,

I'm new to unix and I have a requirement to execute a shell script and get the return code/Exit code and send it in email. Meaninig we execute a script which in turn execute a shel script and fetches it\s return code and send it to email. I tried the code below as :
Code:
output_file=$(mktemp /var/tmp/TestM/Program/script.X1.out)
php /var/tmp/TestM/CATProgram/MLookup.sh >>"$output_file"
ret=$?
if [ $ret -ne 0 ]; then
  echo "MLookup.sh failed (status $ret), see the output in $output_file"
fi

I know that we can send email using mail -s "text". But the above script is not saving the return code in the file. Please help on the above requirement.
Thanks,
Midhun

NAME

       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"
	}
