Idea needed regarding process related script
I want to write a script which will take two time as input parameters and display the details of running processes between the two times, any ideas about the script ?

So all you want to display the script details? Are those scripts scheduled already? If so, how are they scheduled, using at/cron?

If not, do you want to trace the jobs that are going to run in future?

Nopes buddy, you are not getting me. My main motto is to trace down the details of the processes between certain fixed times in past/present. For this , I want to write a shell script.

Could you be more specific and could you give examples of input, desired output and your ideas so far?

Input will be :-

Enter Starting Time - 12 pm
Enter Ending Time - 2pm

Output will be :

Following processes run between 12 pm and 2 pm

Output of ps -aef containing all process details between that time.

What OS are you on?
Do you have a date command that supports the -d option eg:
Code:
$ date -d "12pm"
Mon, Jul 23, 2012 12:00:00 PM

Also, does ps -e -o start_time,user,pid,ppid,tty,time,args work on your OS?

You would need to record "process accounting" information first..
