Shell Programming and Scripting

Does anyone have an example of IOSTAT -eE in a script???????
Need to see the syntax in a script

What UNIX accept iostat in capital letters?
You know not giving your OS and version doesn't help...
My mac OSX 10.5 has no -eE option for iostat...

COme on give me a break, you knew what I meant, help with the question or go away iostat -eiE that better?

This is a solaris 11 OS

Imagine that you were paying $1000 per hour for a specialist to write software but that you were tied to your original specification.

Without knowing what Operating System and version you have or what Shell you use or what you are trying to do, we could drag this out for weeks and make a small fortune.

Experienced programmers get these kinds of specs from users all the time. The first thing you (as an experienced programmer) do is to cut through all of the assumptions.

In this case you have assumed an OS, some sort of shell. iostat has POSIX (standard behaviors) and possibly some add-ons in each UNIX OS. Shells are VERY different - you try process substitution in bash vs ksh if you want an example.... We do not know these things about your request because we all sent our crystal balls in for repair. So anything we provide is likely pointless for you, and a real a waste of your time and ours.


This is how it works in the real world of being a sysadmin or a programmer. Period.

OKAY? So help us out here. If you had to pay our salaries, you'd have to sell your house and your car. So be nice. We are here to help, not harass.
