Shell Programming and Scripting

Need a "health Script" script basically runs the components of a monitoring scripts and displays a simple pass/fail for each check. For example if a person runs your script, for each component of that app he would like to see weather that component is ok or not ok, if the component has an issue, he would contact the person in charge, so that person can look into the issue with that component. I would appreciate if someone can help me regarding this.

thanks

we need a bit more info...

do you have any shell scripting skills?
what kind of testing do you want to do on this app?

yes i do have shell scripting skills, the test that i want to do on the app is a 'health check' for example: CHECKING DRLOCK and Maint Files
=============================================================================

/BA/var/tmp/DRLOCK not found= 0: OK
/var/tmp/DRLOCK not found= 0: OK
/tmp/vp.maint not found= 0: OK
/tmp/nightly_monitoring_disabled.maint not found= 0: OK
/var/tmp/allalerts.maint not found= 0: OK
/var/tmp/FLS.maint not found= 0: OK
/var/tmp/NVV.maint not found= 0: OK
/var/tmp/FSX.maint not found= 0: OK
/var/tmp/FAV.maint not found= 0: OK
/var/tmp/APP_SUPPORT.maint not found= 0: OK

so when i run the script must give me result of something that sort.

Picking one example at random:
What is does the directory listing of the file/directory/pipe/link? "/var/tmp/APP_SUPPORT.maint" look like?

Where does "not found= 0" come from? Is it within "/var/tmp/APP_SUPPORT.maint" or the result of some unknown test on "/var/tmp/APP_SUPPORT.maint" ?

When all the information is available to the shell script, what constitutes "OK"?

"/var/tmp/APP_SUPPORT.maint not found= 0: OK" is the result of the test, these are the "CHECKING DRLOCK and Maint Files" components or files of it. so when i run the script it checks all the DRLOCK or Maint files and gives me report of each component.
