DAILY BACKUP CHECK 
System administrators have to
 check by various means whether
 the daily backup is sucessfully
 completed.
 
 One way is to
 maintain a short log file which
 will log 4 or 5 lines everytime
 the backup is completed.
 
 The latest backup results will be
 automatically checked by System
 administrator on login, if he adds
 these lines at the end of his
 .profile file.
 
 tail -5 /PATH/SHORT_LOG_FILE.log
