Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi there,

I have to automate daily monitoring process and then the result of these process should be sent to a log file, then this log file should be mailed .

ps -ef | grep aa

In this atleast one process should run.
If the process is running it should mention Success in the log file if not mention it as failure.

Please can anyone assit in this.

Thanks In Advance,
Neha.

Code:

process_status=`ps -ef | grep aa | grep -v grep`
if [ $? -eq "0" ]; then
echo "Success" > /tmp/logfile.log
mailx -s "Success - Process Running" abcd@abc.com < /tmp/logfile.log
else
echo "Failed" > /tmp/logfile.log
