Hi Monks,

Good day...!!

I am having a status log file which keeps a track of previous script run. As per requirement, need to compare the current run to the previous run and subsequently sends out notification alerts.

The status file content is build like a reference tree as below:

FreeTablespace_Status.log

$ref = {
         'servername.com' => {
                                  'DB01.com' => {
                                                           'TableSpace
+' => {
                                                                     '
+Tablespace_Name' => {
