Re: [Veritas-bu] Notify Scripts (without sending on retries)

I'm not completely sure what you mean.  I have the script checking a certain 
policy name.  I want:

If the policy has exit status 0, send "success" mail.
If the policy has exit (non-zero) status
  AND if the backup job has reached its maximum number of retries
 send "failure mail"

I'm not sure how to differentiate between whether a failure is a total failure 
or just a failure of one of the attempts.

Customize either script to do the following.

If the client name does not exist in the file, and the backup is
successful, do nothing & exit.
If the client name does not exist in the file, and the backup fails,
write the client name in the file & exit.
If the client name does exist in the file, and the backup is successful,
delete the client name from the file, exit.
If the client name does exist in the file, and the backup fails, delete
the client name from the file, send mail, exit.
