script DB
I have one suggestion.
put the DB names in a vertical file.
#vi fileDB
snowdropDB
tulipDB
etcDB.....
Then do this in your script.
#!/bin/ksh
for name in `cat fileDB`
do
startup $name #"change the name"
some other exe
some other exe
done
This script will allow you to use the different DB names.
OR you can define the DBs in an array inside the script. I prefer to have it in another file. I like modular scripting it makes it easier to make big changes without rewriting the whole program.

NAME
script - make record of a terminal session
SYNOPSIS
script [-a] [filename]
DESCRIPTION
The script utility makes a record of everything printed on your screen. The record is written to filename. If no file name is given, the
record is saved in the file typescript. See WARNINGS.
The script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according to the value of $SHELL, and records the text from this session. The script ends
when the forked shell exits or when Control-d is typed.
OPTIONS
The following option is supported:
-a Appends the session record to filename, rather than overwriting it.
NOTES
script places everything that appears on the screen in filename, including prompts.

script can pose a security risk when used in directories that are writable by other users (for example, /tmp), especially when run by a
privileged user, that is, root. Be sure that typescript is not a link before running script.
