How can I run multiple UNIX commands, using an input file, just once

I'm relatively novice in Unix Shell Scripting. How can I run the (following) multiple UNIX commands (put into a script, say "discover.sh", using my_log.txt input-file just once? Eventually, I would like to create an alias [alias discover1='~/discover.sh'] in my .bashrc.

Like: 

$ discover1 my_log.txt

Current script:

/bin/egrep 'Version:|Online \(warning\)|Failed \(offline\)' my_log.txt;
/bin/grep -A7 "syscontrol realmmgr" my_log.txt;
/bin/grep -C2 BIOS my_log.txt;

discover.sh should contain:

#!/bin/bash
/bin/egrep 'Version:|Online \(warning\)|Failed \(offline\)' "$1"
/bin/grep -A7 "syscontrol realmmgr" "$1";
/bin/grep -C2 BIOS "$1";

The variable $1 is automatically set to the first parameter of the script.
