/usr/bin/ksh (Korn shell) is typically not available on BSD Unix and Linux, unless it is installed as an extra package.
Even hostname might not exist an some SysV Unix.
But all Unix have /bin/sh and should have uname -n
Code:
#!/bin/sh
echo "XYZ\\`uname -n`-volume" >> 123
If your script has got ksh extensions so does not run with /bin/sh, try the following shebang:
Code:
#!/bin/ksh
or
Code:
#!/usr/bin/env ksh

echo `echo ` doesn't echoes anything. And it's logic. But
echo `echo `echo ` ` does echoes "echo". What's the logic of it? the `echo `echo ` inside of the whole (first) echo, echoes nothing, so the first echo have to echo nothing but echoes "echo"
