Hi,

I am trying to get the code to make script to start some process when our server is booted but they can not be run all at onces, so does anyone know the shell code to hold the next command for X amount of mins before running it ?

Regards,
Garry

"sleep 30" will sleep for 30 seconds. Is that what you're looking for?

With sleep:
sleep $(( mins * 60 )) ; jobname

After another process has finished:
wait otherpid ; jobname
