SSL Certificate Report
Hi Sumit,
Apologies on the late reply, Good to know that you already have smtp set.
The next easy step is to put a small script with any mail agent (sendmail or mail or mailx) and have that script run on cron for every month.
Goto /var/tmp/ and create a file as automatecertificatereports.sh.
Add the below code inside the automatecertificatereports.sh file.
#!/bin/sh
tmsh run cli script certificatereports.tcl > /var/tmp/cert-outputs.txt
from="abc@domain.com"
to="abc@domain.com,pqr@domain.com,xyz@domain.com"
subject="Automated SSL Certificate Report"
mail -s "$subject" -r "$from" -a "/var/tmp/cert-outputs.txt" "$to" << EOF
Hi Team,
Please find the attached SSL Certificate Report.
Thanks & Regards,
abc@domain.com
EOF
Change the permission to executable one.
chmod +x automatecertificatereports.sh
Now goto your crontab & do a list first to see the existing cron jobs running.
crontab -l
You should see some couple of disk monitors check etc etc.
Always put some good comments before you make an entry of your cronjob, Use crontab -e to edit/add your entries.
crontab -e
Goto the of the section and the below 2 lines,
## Section for Automated SSL Certificate Report - Monthly Cron - Start of month - 6 O'clk ##
0 6 1 * * /usr/bin/bash /var/tmp/automatecertificatereports.sh
You can edit this cron value according to your need. For testing, try running this for every day 1 AM report - 0 1 * * *
Hope this helps. Let us know if you have more concerns.
