Hello,
I am needing to create a variable and assign it a value based on the value of a previosly defined variable... I am using KSH..

Example:
VAR1=COMPUTER1
I need another variable like ${VAR1}_FLAG="Y", so it would actually be COMPUTER1_FLAG="Y".

I will be looping through many values in a while loop and I need to keep track if I have already processed a value already. So my data may look like this:

COMPUTER1
COMPUTER2
COMPUTER3
COMPUTER1
COMPUTER3

Initially the value of my second variable I am attempting to create would be N, if it ever gets turned to Y because it hit a specific condition then I need to know that later on after I have looped through the values. I will go through the values again in another while loop to see which ones are Y now so then I would need to do this:
If [ ${VAR1}_FLAG = "Y" ]
then
... do stuff
fi



Hope I have explained enough detail... Thanks for any help.
