I have a Perl process which runs on solaris under 5.8.3. It is started with
the following command:
su - prlusr -c "/usr/bin/perl -w /d/src/plpoll.pl >> /d/audit/`date
'+%y%m%d'`.out 2>&1 &"
I would like to a daily basis at time switchover and after I have completed my
processing, check to see if the audit log file exists(ie, I would pull in the latest
time and see if the file say for the 16 Jun: /d/audit/040616.out exists. If it does
not, then I want to close output to the current log file and reopen.
What I want to replicate is:
/d/src/plpoll.pl >> /d/audit/`date '+%y%m%d'`.out 2>&1
Does the above translate to:
close(STDOUT);
close(STDERR);
then
open(STDOUT, '>>' . $MyNewLog)
open(STDERR, '>>' . $MyNewLog)
There would be error checking on both opens. Are those closes and opens what
is needed? if not, ay assistance would be appreciated? Note: At this point, I don't
have a test box so trying to get a good idea of what is needed before trying to make
the changes and insute the processing continues as it should.
Thanks.
Wags ;)
