Can some one give me a script where it determine if a process is running for more than 15 minutes.

The process name is file_system_check.ksh

If I do a ps -ef | grep -i file_system_check.ksh | grep -v grep, this process filters out.

The logic which I need to present in the script is, If the above process is running for more than 15 minutes, then it needs to send an email saying that the process is running for more than 15 minutes.

Hi Blazer,

since your script is for an database-Server i'ld work with DB2-Timestamps. It's easier than doing the Math with dates from the Shell or system.

At the start of your check-script write the current timestamp into a file:
db2 -x "values (current timestamp)" > some/file.out // Database-Connection required!

If you want to test your file_system_check.ksh,
then

START_TIME=$(cat some/file.out)
CHECK_TIME=$(db2 -x "values (current timestamp - $RUNTIME minutes)" )

if [[ $CHECK_TIME > $START_TIME ]]; then
mailx -s bla mail@address.com ...
fi
