Hi akamaras,
I’m also a newbie. Could you help with a script that checks a service on a remote host, and starts the service on my local host if the remote host service isn’t running?

In reply to vibhu. This is old thread, but the problem is value of $(ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep $service | wc -l) is different beetwen terminal and bash script. So to fix this, please assign like this: data=$(ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep $service | wc -l) and then, echo $data to know the real value of those. I found, when service start value is 5, and service off value is 2. By using if else (value>0) the return value is always TRUE.. so you can fix with new if else with real return value from bash script not from terminal.
