Hi All,

We now have a Log file which has time stamps of all the scripts ran. It has start
time and end time. I now have a requirement to send mail to the Admin after the script finishes running.

Can some one help me with a Script which will send mail with Start time and
End time of the script by picking the lines from the below sample log or in any other way which i can tell my script to mail start and end time after it finish running?

swift.log

If you are writing to the logfile in the following manner
scriptname >> logfilename

Then change it as follows (for a really quick fix):
scriptname | tee -a logfilename | mailx -s "scriptname" email@address
