How to check same process running 10 times?
At run time Without knowing job name how to check the job running in specific user "ABCD" ,If the running job duplicate more then 10 then script it self send alert message to the users with the process ID name so that will kill the processed to avoid hung issue ,tried below script please check and let me know if any comments

1)Not able to add line to check job running duplicate more then 10 times
HTML Code:
 
ps -fu ABCD | awk '{print $1 $2,$8}' | \
     while read pid ppid
     do
           
           then                
             mail -s "Please kill the process " "kalia@gmail.com"
           fi
             
     done

We cant reply if you spend your time modifying your code, our posts risk beeing off topic you already modifies 3 times - I started to reply to the previous and found the code changed again making my reply completely ununderstandable

Here is an approach using pgrep and awk that will check duplicate instances by process name:-
Code:
pgrep -l -U ABCD | awk '
        {
                ++p_counter[$2]
        }
        END {
                for ( k in p_counter )
                {
                        if ( p_counter[k] > 10 )
                        {
                                cmd = "echo \"Found " p_counter[k] " instances of " k " running\" | mailx -s \"Please kill process\" user@gmail.com"
                                system(cmd)
                        }
                }
        }
'

Assumption: You are using bash on Linux. Try something like:
Code:
while read count name
do
   if (( count >= 10 ))
   then
   # email command goes here
   fi
done <(ps -u ABCD -ocomm= | sort | uniq -c)

Untested.

Basically don't use ps -f | awk 'print $x' when you can use ps -o xxx
Sort puts the commands into order; uniq -c counts them.

Note that ps -o xxx will not work on all systems, E.g. HP-UX

You have to set UNIX95 flag to obey the XPG4 - XOpen Portibilty Guide V4
Code:
UNIX95=1 ps -u ABCD-ocomm=

Thanks for urs replay

Am attaching sample input file so that you can clearly understand

Output send below alert message

"The job "d.ksh" runing more then 10 time please check the process avoid hung issue"
"The job "a.ksh" runing more then 10 time please check the process avoid hung issue"
if we can addd job name with processid in the script that will be also fine

below is input file
