Shell script to check if the Workflow mailer is down in APPS R12

We can use the following shell script and can schedule it with crontab. It is very handy, it will check the workflow mailer and if it is down it will send email to APPS DBA.

Following is the script.
#!/bin/sh
## ORACLE_HOME=`cat /etc/var/opt/oratab | grep ^TESTDB: | cut -f2 -d':'`
ORACLE_HOME=/erptest/TST/db/tech_st/11.1.0
export ORACLE_HOME
ORACLE_SID=ERPTEST
export ORACLE_SID
PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin:.
export PATH
SCRIPT_DIR=/erptestdb/home/scripts
export SCRIPT_DIR
# check_ts.log
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/sqlplus -s test_user/test_user <spool /erptestdb/home/scripts/check_wf_mailer.log

set lines 1000
set head off
# column tablespace_name format a50
select COMPONENT_STATUS
from apps.FND_SVC_COMPONENTS
where component_type='WF_MAILER'
/

spool off
exit
!
#SCRIPT_DIR=/test/appl/homes/oratest/scripts

if [ -s $SCRIPT_DIR/check_wf_mailer.log ]; then
#COUNT=`cat check_ts.log | wc -l `
COUNT=0
STATUS=`cat $SCRIPT_DIR/check_wf_mailer.log | awk '{print $1}'`
VSTATUS='RUNNING'
echo "v status is: " $VSTATUS
echo "file is present"
echo "Script Dir: " $SCRIPT_DIR
echo "status is " $STATUS
if [ $STATUS != $VSTATUS ] ; then
echo "status is in the if stmt " $STATUS
mailx -s "Oracle Workflow Mailer is down in APPS R12, please check " appsdba@test.com < /erptestdb/home/scripts/check_wf_mailer.log
