Creating a monitoring alarm every hour in UNIX
Hi,

I need to create a monitoring alarm script which would check if the log file has been updated in the last one hour or not.

I tried using -cmin however, one environment supports it where as the other does not.

I would really need some help here!!!

Welcome Ritu245,
I have a few to questions pose in response first:-
  • Is this homework/assignment? There are specific forums for these.
  • What have you tried so far?
  • What output/errors do you get?
  • What OS and version are you using?
  • What are your preferred tools? (C, shell, perl, awk, etc.)
  • What logical process have you considered? (to help steer us to follow what you are trying to achieve)
Most importantly, What have you tried so far? Mentioning a single flag of an unnamed command with no errors/output is a bit difficult to work with and you don't tell us about the OS and versions you are working with.

There are probably many ways to achieve most tasks, so giving us an idea of your style and thoughts will help us guide you to an answer most suitable to you so you can adjust it to suit your needs in future.


We're all here to learn and getting the relevant information will help us all.
