2. Shell Programming and Scripting
Hi Experts,
I am trying to write a ksh script that it should notify in case there is no response from the other script. I mean to say that I got a.sh and b.sh
the execution of b.sh depends on a.sh, so if there is no response from a.sh,
b.sh should notify me about the same.
Thanks in Advance (4 Replies)

listen
LISTEN(7) SQL Commands LISTEN(7)
NAME
LISTEN - listen for a notification
SYNOPSIS
LISTEN name
INPUTS
name Name of notify condition.
OUTPUTS
LISTEN Message returned upon successful completion of registration.
WARNING: Async_Listen: We are already listening on name
If this backend is already registered for that notify condition.
DESCRIPTION
LISTEN registers the current PostgreSQL backend as a listener on the notify condition name.
Whenever the command NOTIFY name is invoked, either by this backend or another one connected to the same database, all the backends cur-
rently listening on that notify condition are notified, and each will in turn notify its connected frontend application. See the discussion
of NOTIFY for more information.
A backend can be unregistered for a given notify condition with the UNLISTEN command. Also, a backend's listen registrations are automati-
cally cleared when the backend process exits.
The method a frontend application must use to detect notify events depends on which PostgreSQL application programming interface it uses.
With the libpq library, the application issues LISTEN as an ordinary SQL command, and then must periodically call the routine PQnotifies to
find out whether any notify events have been received. Other interfaces such as libpgtcl provide higher-level methods for handling notify
events; indeed, with libpgtcl the application programmer should not even issue LISTEN or UNLISTEN directly. See the documentation for the
library you are using for more details.
NOTIFY [notify(7)] contains a more extensive discussion of the use of LISTEN and NOTIFY.
NOTES
name can be any string valid as a name; it need not correspond to the name of any actual table. If notifyname is enclosed in double-quotes,
it need not even be a syntactically valid name, but can be any string up to 63 characters long.
In some previous releases of PostgreSQL, name had to be enclosed in double-quotes when it did not correspond to any existing table name,
even if syntactically valid as a name. That is no longer required.
USAGE
Configure and execute a listen/notify sequence from psql:
LISTEN virtual;
NOTIFY virtual;
Asynchronous NOTIFY 'virtual' from backend with pid '8448' received.
COMPATIBILITY
SQL92
There is no LISTEN in SQL92.
