Script to find the variable count

[sr_nagu]

Hi,

I have one log file in which I get the no. of failed process.

I need a script to find out the variable count and send us mail through mail command.

I need this alert mail only, if the variable count increases by 10

Variable in the log file test.log is.....

Commands returned without processing frame(s) = 597

Can someone help me please?

Regards,

Nagu

someVar=$((`awk '{ print $1 }' somelog.log`))
if [ $someVar -gt 10 ]
then
`mutt -s "Failed processes" someuser@somedomain.net -c anotherreceiver@somedomain.com<sendreport`
echo "Variable count greater than 10";
fi

NB://somelog.log contains the number of failed processes. sendreport contains the body of the mail

If I didnt get your question clear you can try and explain it better. I'll help where I can.
