Hi,

I have a script name test.sh

It checks for the extents of Informix Database that are more then or equal to 100 and sends a warning message to me.

As per this script if there are two or more tables having more then 100 then it sends two or more mails.

I want it to send only one mail even if there are more then one tables more then 100.

How can it be done?
Script attached.

Thanks,
Raje.

Hi

Select a filename for your mail.

Remove it at the start of the script.

When the 100 limit is breached write your data to the file mentioned above

At the end of the script

if [ -f file ]
then
elm -s xxxxxxxxxxxxx < file
/bin/rm file
fi

My solution would be a variable and loop - ie

MAIL=NO
while true
do
if [ $MAIL -eq "NO" ]
then
if [ "extent check positive ?" ]
then
MAIL=YES
"sendmail commands"
exit
fi
fi
done

So basically as soon as you find one extent over or equal to 100 then send the mail and set the MAIL variable to YES which would then exit the loop.
