Looks ok, but some changes was needed

I had to make some changes, to make this work – if you try this modified version, please remember to delete the tmp files created previously by the script.

#!/bin/bash
# script that checks for new errpt
#
errptlast=/tmp/errptlast
errpttmp=/tmp/errpttmp
admin=root@localhost
#
# check if first run
errpt | egrep -v ‘^IDENTIFIER’ > $errpttmp
if [ ! -f $errptlast ] ; then
# first run generate a timestamp – 1 hour to fake last run
#phour=$((`date +%H` – 2))
phour=$((`date +%k` – 2))
#date +%m%d$phour%M%y > $errptlast
date +%m%d%H%M%y > $errptlast
fi
lastts=`cat $errptlast`
count=`errpt -s “$lastts” | egrep -v ‘^IDENTIFIER’ | wc -l`
exit1=$?
count=`echo $count`
countcrit=`errpt -s “$lastts” | egrep -v ‘^IDENTIFIER’ | sed -n ‘s!.* (P) .*!1!p’ | wc -l`
exit2=$?
countcrit=`echo $countcrit`
if [ “$count” -ge 1 ] ; then
# determine level
errpt -A -D -s “$lastts” | mail -s “$count new error reports of which $countcrit critical on `hostname` since $lastts” $admin
#date +%m%d%H%M%y > $errptlast
date +%m%d%H%M%y > $errptlast
if [ “$countcrit” -ge 1 ] ; then
echo “$count new error reports of which $countcrit critical generated since $lastts”
exit 2
else
echo “$count New error reports generated since $lastts”
exit 1
fi
fi
if [ “$count” == 0 ] && [ “$countcrit” == 0 ] && [ “$exit1” == 0 ] && [ “$exit2” == 0 ] ; then
echo “No new Error Reports since $lastts”
exit 0
fi
echo “Errpt Check failed”
exit 3
