Shell Programming and Scripting

hi experts,

i have some problem with my solaris 8 v890 server, is :

the server running process called SS7 below is example process :
PID STAT MODE HOST MUX OBJECT
384 ok LX|A USSDGmdn-1a spm/0 daemon [name=apmd]
385 ok LX|A USSDGmdn-1a spm/2 daemon [name=mlogd]
389 ok LX|A USSDGmdn-1a spm/3 daemon [name=spmd]
397 ok LX|A USSDGmdn-1a spm/4 daemon [name=netd]
419 ok LX|A USSDGmdn-1a spm/5 daemon [name=alarmd]
420 ok LX|A USSDGmdn-1a spm/6 daemon [name=dsmd]
421 ok LX|A USSDGmdn-1a spm/7 daemon [name=dkmd]
422 ok LX|A+ USSDGmdn-1a upm/0/0 daemon [name=upmd0]
424 ok LX|A+ USSDGmdn-1a sccp/0/0 daemon [name=scmd0]
426 ok LX|A USSDGmdn-1a spm/12 daemon [name=tcmd]
458 ok LX|A USSDGmdn-1a spm/13 daemon [name=logd]
719 ok L|A USSDGmdn-1a tcap/0/1 ss7obj [sp=0 up=3 ssn=147 inst=1]
5289 ok L|A USSDGmdn-1a spm/16 nmdobj [name=ebs_ps]

sometimes if the request from user too much the above process will hang and if we do check the process with command "ebs_ps" it will be display like this :

PID STAT MODE HOST MUX OBJECT
5289 ok L|A USSDGmdn-1a spm/16 nmdobj [name=ebs_ps]

and the server sometimes will be restarting itself.

note : to bring up the application use "ebs_start" and it running on "mapadm" user


how to check with script to make sure the process is running? and if the process hang it can be started automatically

how to do startup script if the server rebooting itself?

below is my script for startup :

root@USSDGmdn-4 # more S78ussdstart
#!/bin/sh

cd $HOME/script

/opt/EBS/access/bin/ebs_start ---> for start SS7 application

sleep 60

start_ussd.sh & ---> start ussd application in background
sleep 90

ussd_reload.sh ---> reload configuration file


note : i had put this script on /etc/rc2.d and named S78ussdstart


Please advice

thank you so much


Best Regards,

wu
