Bash script restart.sh <arg>

[Danielh90]

Hello I'm trying to great a restart.sh for couple of services I run. I need to be able to do restart.sh <arg> How would that?

Are you just asking how to pass command line arguments to a shell script? 

They are passed as $n where in restart.sh foo bar 

$1 = foo and $2 = bar

Yeah but I need to make sure that $1 will restart the service .

$1 is just the first argument ... it doesn't do anything but pass a variable to your shell script. You mean you want to know how to make a script to restart services?

In your 'restart.sh' script, you would just replace the static server name with the variable $1
