请问这段shell是什么意思

source $(cd -P -- "$(dirname -- "$0")" && pwd -P)/header.sh

hive -e "select 1" > /dev/null 2>&1 &
pid=$!

((timeLeft = 60))

while ((timeLeft > 0)); do
    sleep 5
    ps -p $pid > /dev/null || break
    ((timeLeft -= 5))
done

if ps -p $pid > /dev/null
then
    kill $pid
    sleep 5

    # still alive, use kill -9
    if ps -p $pid > /dev/null
    then
        kill -9 $pid
    fi

    quit "ERROR: Check hive's usability failed, please check the status of your cluster"
fi

请问一下这段shell是什么意思。我执行的时候老是跳转到ERROR这里,是什么原因引起的。我应该怎么排除?
