Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi,

I got a requirement to automate the process.

We have SLA files, there are some 80 SLA files comes from 1.30pm - 5.30pm.

I was asked to write a script to check for the SLA files in the load directory, if the files come then we got to send the mail to the group, if the mails doesnt come then we got to store in a file or variable( i will come here later)

The issue is as the file comes from 1.30pm - 5.30pm, we want this script to run for every half hour that i will handle through cron, the problem is we want to check for the files in 1.30pm slot only those which are expected to come not all files should be checked.

In other words if abc.txt, def.txt, ghi.txt come in 1.30pm then my input files should contain only this, and if some files are missing then we got to save them in a file or variable. This file or variable which has the list of file not came in 1.30pm slot should be added to 2pm slot's input files and check for the arrival.

Please help me as how i can achive this
