I am troubleshooting a script that informs me when a system has rebooted.
The script is placed in /etc/rc3.d folder under root.
The script is as follows:
Code:
. /opt/scripts/function.sh
PATH=/usr/bin
EMAIL_ADD=<email address>
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
echo "$WT_SYSTEM is rebooted" | mailx -s "SYSTEM is rebooted" $EMAIL_ADD
Func_SMS " SYSTEM is rebooted"
function.sh is used to send a sms to my cell number.
The problem I am facing is that when I execute the script like this : ./Script ,
it returns with the following error : syntax error at line 14: `}' unexpected
But when I rin it like : ksh -x Script , it works..... What is the issue here ?
You should specify the shell on the 1st line of the script.
Also it's not wise to put scripts directly into /etc/rc3.d
you are better off putting a chkconfig compatable script into /etc/rc.d/init.d and using chkconfig to create the required sym links
Try this scrip, save it as /etc/rc.d/init.d/stnotify
Code:
#!/bin/sh
#
# stnotify Notify sysadmin system startup
#
# chkconfig: 2345 87 03
# description: Send SMS to sysadmin when system starts.
#
. /opt/scripts/function.sh
PATH=/usr/bin
EMAIL_ADD=<email address>
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
case "$1" in
start)
echo "$WT_SYSTEM is rebooted" | mailx -s "SYSTEM is rebooted" $EMAIL_ADD
Func_SMS " SYSTEM is rebooted"
;;
stop) ;;
*) echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop}"
exit 1
esac
Then use chkconfig --add stnotify to install your script (it will create symbolic links for the start and stop version of the script at the required run levels).
Note the same script could be enhanced to notify you if the system is restarted, shutdown or put into single user mode.

Whenever I reboot this server remotely by using the command 'shutdown -r now' or 'reboot'. The server does not return to normal multi-user mode. It boots in single user mode.
To bring back the server, someone is required to connect via console and fire 'init 3'.
Please suggest on what... (1 Reply)
