Hello I was wondering if anyone knows of any way in which I can monitor a directory on my server for the addition of a file on an hourly basis. For example, I have a script setup to send a file to a directory every 2 hours and if this file arrives in the directory, then our entire monitoring system is functioning properly, but if the new file is not added on the 2 hour mark, then there has been some problem with the system and therefore must be acted upon. So, every two hours, check this directory for either a new file, or 1 more file than was there on the previous check would be "System OK" and if there was the same number of files or no new file in the directory, then "System Fail". Hopefully I've made my goal clear to everyone. Please, any help would be greatly appreciated. Maybe, check the directory for the file and if it is there, then OK and then automatic delete the file, and then the next check in two hours only has to check to see if there is a file in the directory again, if there is, OK and delete and if not, then FAIL. Thanks again.
