Question Change Variable Value from Multiple Scripts and Use these Variable
Hi to All,

Please find below details.

file_config.config
export file1_status="SUCCESS"
export file2_status="SUCCESS"

file_one.sh
I am calling another two shell script from these script. I need to pass individual two script status (If it's "FAILED") to file_main.sh.

file_main.sh
I have included file_config.config file
. file_config.config
I need individual execution status from file_one.sh. So, I can do some process base on script status from file_one.sh.

Please guide me.

Thanks & Regards,
Divyang
