Bash Scrip Running On Remote Server

Hi all,

I am trying to write a script that syncs files from source to destination. I have one centralized server that can ssh to any servers without pw. Now when I run the script, it can ssh to source server perfectly fine, but you need to enter password for destination server. Was wondering how I can clean this up before I start using case statements

Below is a sample I wrote

#!/bin/bash

#This scripts syncs shit

echo "Type in ID: "
read ID

echo "Type in Server : " #source server
read S

echo "Type in Destination Server: "
read DS

if [ $S == 9 ]; then
ssh -t "root@"$S"webserver1" "rsync -av /home/rlui/"$ID "root@"$DS"webserver2:/home/rlui/";
ssh -t "root@"$S"webserver1" "rsync -av /home/rlui/tmp/"$ID "root@sl"$DS"webserver2:/home/rlui/tmp/"
exit 1

where S and DS are cluster numbers

I apologize in advance if I am not clear on anything

Hi All,

Im trying to create a script which checks the creation time of a file and if it is more than ten minutes, send out an alert.

For ex : Creation date of file is 10:30 AM
current time is 10:45 AM

Then send an alert/ message.

This is the script i wrote below :

Code:

#!/bin/ksh

filename="/apps/log/file.txt"

if [ -f "${filename}" ]
then
        createTime=`ls -lad "${filename}" | awk '{print $8}'`
        echo "$createTime"
        currentTime=`date '+%M'`
        echo "$currentTime"
        DIFF=$(( $currentTime - $createTime )) 
        echo "$DIFF"

else

        exit 1

fi

I am getting syntax error on the subraction when i try to run this script . I can understand that creation time and current time is in different format thats y this error throws, but i dont know how to rectify it .

I need to find out if the file creation time is more than ten minutes.

Please help me in achieving this output.

Hello,
I'm working on a shell script that needs to read the a file (file1) a batch (read 2000 lines at a time) and then write those lines to seperate file which I'm using to run ldapmodify command. I need to check some other file size and once this file less than 200kb, i would need to run second batch and so on until file1 is empty.
Quote:
#!/bin/bash
set -x
filesize=200
server=10.11.xxx.xx
filename=fileimport.txt
taofile1=687686.txt
taofile=/var/opt/$taofile1

stty -echo
echo -n "Enter password: "
read passwd
stty echo
context="cn=user1,ou=org1,ou=org2,o=org"
if [[ -s "$filename" ]];then
for lines in $filename
do
head -99997 fileimport.txt >> ldapreadd.ldif && sed -i '1,+99996d' fileimport.txt
if [ -s ldapreadd.ldif ];then
ldapmodify -h $server -p 389 -D $context -w $passwd -v -x -f ldapreadd.ldif &> /dev/null
echo "LDIF script is running. Please wait..."
sleep 60
if [ -f "$taofile" ];then
taofilesize=`stat -c %s ${taofile}`
# if [ "$taofilesize" -ge 200 ];then
while [ `stat -c %s ${taofile}` -ge 200 ]
do
echo " Driver is processing LDIF file. Please wait..."
sleep 60
done
fi
rm -rf ldapreadd.ldif
fi
done
else
echo "$filename file is empty. Exiting script..."
exit
fi

I have 2 issues here. first one script is not reading exact lines as specified. Some times its reading more lines some times less lines. Second issues once it run the first batch, script is exiting. Please advise.

Hello,

I am setting up a linux server for gaming and I am using a script to update the files automatically and create a folder with a certain name.

Code:

# !/bin/bash

# A convenience function, to save us some work
update_server() {
	# Read the app id and the directory into a variable

	APP_ID=$1
	DIR=$2

	# Create the directory ( if it does not exist already )
	if [ ! -d "$HOME/$DIR" ]; then
		mkdir -p "$HOME/$DIR"
	fi

	# Uh-oh, it looks like we still have no directory. Report an error.
	if [ ! -d "$HOME/$DIR" ]; then
		# Describe what went wrong
		echo "ERROR! Cannot create directory $HOME/$DIR!"

		# Exit with status code 1 ( which indicates an error )
		exit 1
	fi

	# Call SteamCMD with the app ID we provided and tell it to install
	./bin/steamcmd.sh +login anonymous +force_install_dir "$HOME/$DIR" +app_update $APP_ID validate +quit
}

# Now the script actually runs update_server ( which we just declared above ) with the id of the application ( 4020 is Garry's Mod ) and the name of the directory we want the server to be hosted from:

update_server 4020 "gmodserver"

exit 0

When I run this script, it creates 2 folders on my server : gmodserver and gmodserver? There is no files downloaded in gmodserver. All the files are downloaded in gmodserver?

I looked for a few hours on how to solve this problem but I have no idea what the added ? might be so I am lost as to what to look for. Could you help me on figuring this out?

Thank you.

edit : I am using ubuntu 15.04 x64 if it makes a difference.

I am writing a script to check whether a "sysinfo" is installed in a system or not. sysinfo is a tool that gives information about the system. Its is installed in /usr/local/bin. so at CLI when I type sysinfo, it will display output.

#!/bin/bash
sysinfo=`/usr/local/bin/sysinfo`
echo "$sysinfo"
if [ "$?" = 0 ];then
echo "sysinfo installed"
else
echo "Please install sysinfo"
fi

Concept is, I run the command if it is present, it will show output and exit status of command is 0 else it is not installed. But it is not working as expected. Any thoughts , idea, suggestion.

I need to compare a value with different fixed value. Below is the code concept I implemented in my bash script but its giving me error.
Here "a' is the nameserver value that I extract using command line from /etc/resolv.conf. I did not put command here.

#! /bin/bash
a=1.2.3.4

if [ $a == 1.2.3.4 || 5.6.7.8 || 8.9.1.4]
then
echo " You have correct ntpserver"
else
echo"wrong ntpserver"

fi

Am I comparing the value correctly or any suggestion?

Thank you

Hi,

i have a small problem on my system... I recently wrote a small bash script and added it via crontab -u root -e and it's executed as it should.
Then a few days after i did edit my bash script, but once it is run by cron it doesn't reflect the changes i made to the script. I did manually restart crond, tryed sync, moved my script, renamed it even rstart the server - no success.
If i run my script manually it returns me the expected output.
part of my script (/root/sd.sh):
Code:

#!/bin/sh

echo -n "Checking Raid... "
RAID=`tw-cli /c0/u0 show status | cut -c17-31 | grep -ci OK`
RAIDSTATUS=`tw-cli /c0/u0 show status | head -n1 | cut -c17-31`
if [ $RAID -eq 0 ]; then
  VERIFYING=`tw-cli /c0/u0 show status | cut -c17-31 | grep -ci VERIFYING`
  REBUILDING=`tw-cli /c0/u0 show status | cut -c17-31 | grep -ci REBUILDING`
  if [ $VERIFYING -eq 1 ]; then
    CURRENTSTATUS=`tw-cli /c0/u0 show verifystatus | head -n1 | cut -c46-49`
  fi
  if [ $REBUILDING -eq 1 ]; then
    CURRENTSTATUS=`tw-cli /c0/u0 show rebuildstatus | head -n1 | cut -c47-50`
  fi
  echo "Raid is busy (Raid $RAIDSTATUS$CURRENTSTATUS)"
  exit 1
fi
echo "Raid is idle (Raid $RAIDSTATUS)"

echo -n "Checking for logged in Users... "
USERS=`who | wc -l`
if [ $USERS -gt 0 ]; then
  echo "Users online"
  exit 1
fi
echo "None logged in"

crontab -l :
Code:

root@monster:~# crontab -l
# Edit this file to introduce tasks to be run by cron.
#
# Each task to run has to be defined through a single line
# indicating with different fields when the task will be run
# and what command to run for the task
#
# To define the time you can provide concrete values for
# minute (m), hour (h), day of month (dom), month (mon),
# and day of week (dow) or use '*' in these fields (for 'any').#
# Notice that tasks will be started based on the cron's system
# daemon's notion of time and timezones.
#
# Output of the crontab jobs (including errors) is sent through
# email to the user the crontab file belongs to (unless redirected).
#
# For example, you can run a backup of all your user accounts

when i run sh /root/sd.sh
Code:

Any ideas why? - any help or thoughts appreciated

Hi,

I am new to UNIX - i wrote this below script based on the requirement. But i am stuck at the concatenation (at the second last step of the code)

The below code is working fine till the concatenation(second last step) - I need to concatenate Hello to the "physId" e.g. - The filename is UM123456789.20150503 - i am extracting M123456789 and i need to append "HELO" to it at the end. But as per the below script - when i am using the concatenation, it is overwriting the M123456789 and the output thus becomes HELO456789. I am trying to get the output as - M123456789HELO - where am i going wrong?

on the terminal i checked - echo $0 and it gave -> /bin/sh. Hence i wrote the below code.

#!bin/sh
absolutePath=/abc/data/abc_unix/stg/decrypt/*.*
filepath=$(echo ${absolutePath%.*})
echo "$filepath"
filenameext=$(echo ${filepath#/abc*decrypt/})
echo "$filenameext"
file=$(echo ${filenameext#.*})
echo "$file"
extract_physId=$(echo ${file:1:9})
physId=$(echo ${extract_physId})
echo "$physId"
key="$physId"HELO
echo "$key"

Hi All,

I have two scripts, the aim of these two scripts is, to check whether a particular script is running or not, if it wont runs, then throw a mail.

How i Achieved this output is, I wrote first script.

I created an infinite while loop which performs below steps

1. It creates a touch file
2. Triggers the script which needs to be monitored if its working or not.
3. Removes the touch file.

If the second step fails, then the remove file command will not happen and the script will stuck there itself.

I created an another script which checks the creation time of the touch file and if it is more than ten minutes, it means the second step in the first script is hanged, which also means that particular script is not working.

So if the creation time is more than 2 minutes the second script will throw a mail.

Below are the two scripts.

Code:

#!/bin/ksh



userid="chansd"

filename="/apps/log/check.txt"

while true ;do
touch $filename
pass=`/apps/eDMZ/call_st.ksh $userid`
sleep 20
rm $filename
done

Below script checks the file creation time and throws email if it is older than 2 minutes
Code:

#!/bin/ksh


filename="/apps/log/check.txt"

if [ -f "${filename}" ]
then
if test "`find $filename -mmin +2`"
then
echo "script is not working ! Please act on it" | mail -s "Script  is not working" Example@mail.com
fi


else

        exit 1

fi

What im going to do is

1. I am going to run the first script in background so it runs forever.
2. I am going to run the second script in cron forevry 5 mins to check the file creation time.

3. So if the first script hangs . I will kill the process using process id and after the issue resolves with the inner script, I will run the main script again.

I am new to Linux, Please let me know if this approach will work as expected.

Hello,

They gave me this:
Code:

#!/bin/bash

# Write error message on stderr and die
function die() {
  echo "$@" >&2
  exit 1
}

# Load var from properties files
function load() {
  for propertie in "$@" ; do
    [[ -f "${propertie}" ]] || die "load() : \"${propertie}\" don't exist !"
    while read ; do
echo "${REPLY%=*}"
echo "${REPLY#*=}"
      [[ -n "${REPLY%%=*}" && -z "${REPLY#*=}" ]] || die "load() : Variable \"${REPLY%%=*}\" is empty!"
      eval "${REPLY%%=*}"=\'"${REPLY#*=}"\'
    done < "${propertie}"
  done
}

load "manage_srcds.conf"
echo "SRCDS_TICKRATE=$SRCDS_TICKRATE"
echo "SRCDS_SCREEN=$SRCDS_SCREEN"
echo "SRCDS_SRCDS_GAME_NAME=$SRCDS_GAME_NAME"
echo "SRCDS_MAXPLAYERS=$SRCDS_MAXPLAYERS"

but, return:
Quote:
###################################################
###################################################
load() : Variable "###################################################" is empty!

cat manage_srcds.conf

I just wish that there was no empty variable excluding those who do not have integer.

Best regards,
