Check shell Script copy Status

I have a cron script and i need to adjust it; Actually some clients are generating in a directory some files, my task is to backup that files to a tape, and i need to make a if then else

cp $files $tape
if exit 0 
     then 
        send successfully mail 
        delete files
     else 
         send a fail mail 
         but don't delete that files
fi

Could someone help me with that?

Maybe with something like that? Actually the code is like that

    find $STR_FILES -print | backup -ivq -f $TAPE >> /tmp/logfile

you say that i must put something like that?

    BKP='find $STR_FILES -print | backup -ivq -f $TAPE'
    $BKP >> /tmp/logfile
    if [$BKP -eq 0 ]
       then
       ...
       else
       ...
    fi

Actually i did as a test

Actually i did cd / find /u01 -name ora_856562.aud

    if ["$?" = "0" ]; then
    rm /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/rdbms/audit/ora_856562.aud
    (echo "Se depuraron  *.aud Ok") | mail -r oracle_alfa@notification.imcl-peoplesoft.com -s "Prueba if"  egrc77@hotmail.com
    else
    (echo "NO Se depuraron  *.aud Ok") | mail -r oracle_alfa@notification.imcl-peoplesoft.com -s "Prueba if"  egrc77@hotmail.com
    fi
    exit

but fails with

    ./prueba.sh[3]: 0:  not found.
    ./prueba.sh[5]: [127:  not found.

I would seriously recommend you to user rsync for this task.

But back on topic, your script is almost done but you will need to fix a few things:

The conditional needs to be fixed. You will needs something like:

if [ $? -eq 0 ]

Read here about conditionals and such.

You can easily send mail from CLI with one of several programs. I advise sendmail for it's ease of use. More here

The mail script code i have and is working fine, actually the code is this

find $STR_FILES -print | backup -ivq -f $TAPE >> $TMP_LOG_DLS

BKP='find $STR_FILES -print | backup -ivq -f $TAPE'

if [$BKP -eq 0 ]

the $? variable holds the exit status of the last command executed. You don't need to check the value of $BKP, just the exit status of the operation in which you you perform the backup – Bruno9779 – 2014-05-19T12:47:51.827
