I would like to send an email message to my pager notifying me when a
process finishes. How can I detect when a process finishes? I'm running
AIX 4.2.1 using korn shell. Thanks. -Dean

A quick and Dirty script I use (Solaris 2.6) follows. I call the
process from a script and just keep checking every 5 secs if it is
still there.
#!/bin/ksh
. $HOME/myprocess 2>/dev/null &
PID=$!
#echo $PID
while sleep 5
do
ps -p$PID >/dev/null
if [ $? != 0 ]
then
echo "Call My Pager Here If I Had One"
exit 1
fi
done
Don't if this is any use to you?

pageme "Process $pid exited"
On Solaris, you would use "pwait $pid", perhaps AIX has a similar
cheap mechanism.

echo It finished | mail yourself
What could be easier?

1. system call starting next process before first process is finished.
Hello,
I have a c++ program which has infinite loop.
Inside the loop I have some code which gets the data file when it
arrives it starts a process using system call. When there are two
files available, it starts two processes with two files at one given
time, without waiting first to finish. It works fine but I want to
wait on the the system call. i.e I want the system to call to finish
first process and then it should continue and if there is second file
then it should start second process by using system call.
Please help me in fisxing this problem
Thanks in advance
