Logging success event into file
Hi,
I've the following code to log the errors any after the command is executed.
Code:
# Ksh 88 Version
 
log_path=/home/etc/fls/fls_log.log
del_path=/home/etc/fls/to_day
rm $del_path/* >> $log_path 2>&1

But I even want to log if the rm command is success without any error along with timestamp .
How can i achieve that .
Please advice ..

Thanks

Try

Code:
log_path=/home/etc/fls/fls_log.log
del_path=/home/etc/fls/to_day
message=$(rm $del_path/* 2>&1)
echo "$(date) $message >> $log_path
