This is the bash root shell. I have tried to just echo an array, and it completes successfully but then still gives the same input as before. I am also not able to make the for loop work, see below. This is probably because I do not have much experience with arrays. But the basic echo array returns the /vol/root without any subdirectories. Maybe I am not making the loop for the iteration correctly.

Basic echo array:

Code:

declare -a array=( $(su nbadmin -c "ssh -t servery /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bplist -C servery -t 19 -l -R -s 11/01/20
12 -e 11/01/2012 -e 11/01/2012 /vol/root/") )
echo ${array[$i]}

this gives errors:

Code:

declare -a array=( $(su nbadmin -c "ssh -t servery /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bplist -C servery -t 19 -l -R -s 11/01/2012 -e 11/0
12 -e 11/01/2012 -e 11/01/2012 /vol/root/") )
for (( i = 0; i < ${#array[@]}; i++ ))
do
 echo ${array[$i]}
done

Errors:
+ declare -a 'array=( drwxr-xr-x root root 4096 May 25 2012 /vol/root/ )'
testing_1130: line 2: syntax error near unexpected token `(('
testing_1130: line 2: `for (( i = 0; i < ${#array[@]}; i++ ))'

Again, any help you gurus have is always appreciated.
