[Solved] Looking for script running before I run script again
Good afternoon!
I have a script in cron that runs every ten minutes. Normally it only takes a minute or so to complete. However there are times when the amount of data it is looking at is large, and it has taken 20 minutes.
So I want for it to look for the script before it starts.
I was going to put something like this in the beginning"
And if it found a process, then it will just exit. Otherwise, it will continue on like normal. My thought process is that this runs every ten minutes and if there is something going on that is causing it take longer than 10 minutes (or really 7 or 8) then they won't all stack up running at the same time.
It is on the tip of my brain, but I can't seem to find it.
I was thinking of doing this,
What do you think? Any suggestions?
This is causing a problem, because at one time it took up all of the CPU and memory and nobody could log in via SSH even.

Hello.
This is my situation.
script .anything
ls -l .
---How can I see the content of .anything using (i.e) cat .anything?
If not possible can someone suggest a sequence to simulate a console-recorder
to "observ" from a RUNNING script session?
