Log file problem
I want to transfer files from ABC server to XYZ server in which i am successful. I would like to create a log file also by the name of current date. For some reason my script gives me an error on my scp -p command and it says LOCAL_LOG_FILE: not found and REMOTE_LOG_FILE not found. Any clues whats going on?

Code:
LOCAL_LOG_FILE ="log_`date +%m%d%y`"
REMOTE_LOG_FILE ="XYZ:/terry/dukes/bkup/${LOCAL_LOG_FILE}"
date +"%m/%d/%y %H:%M:%S" > $LOCAL_LOG_FILE
scp -p /some/user/files/*.gif
XYZ:/terry/dukes/bkup >$LOCAL_LOG_FILE 2>&1
echo "File copied Successfully `date +%m%d%y:%H:%M:%S`"  >$LOCAL_LOG_FILE
scp -p $LOCAL_LOG_FILE $REMOTE_LOG_FILE

I want to create a log file on the remote system + local system with the "file copied successfully" message included in that log file. But its not creating a log file. Everytime i run the script i get:

Code:
LOCAL_LOG_FILE ="log_`date +%m%d%Y`"
category_captains.sh[32]: LOCAL_LOG_FILE:  not found.
REMOTE_LOG_FILE ="XYZ:/terry/dukes/bkup/${LOCAL_LOG_FILE}"
category_captains.sh[33]: REMOTE_LOG_FILE:  not found.

Because of that i believe its not creating the file

       asadmin-stop-instance, stop-instance - stops the specified server instance and all the services associated with it

SYNOPSIS

       stop-instance  [--user  admin_user]  [--password  admin_password]  [--host local_host] [--port 4848] [--local=false] [--domain domain_name]
       [--secure|-s]instance_name

       Use the stop-instance to stop the instance with the instance name specified. The stop-instance can be run both locally and  remotely.   The
       named instance must already exist within the given domain; and the instance must be running.

OPTIONS

       --user		       administrative user associated for the instance.

       --password	       administrative password corresponding to the administrative user.

       --host		       host name of the machine hosting the administrative instance.

       --port		       administrative port number associated with the administrative host.

       --local		       determines if the command should delegate the request to administrative instance or run locally.

       --domain 	       name of the domain.

       --passwordfile	       file containing passwords appropriate for the command (e.g., administrative instance).

       --secure 	       if true, uses SSL/TLS to communicate with the administrative instance.

OPERANDS

       Example 1: Using stop-instance in local mode

       asadmin> stop-instance --local --domain domain1 server1
       Instance server1 stopped

       Where: the server1 instance associated with the domain1 domain is stopped locally.

       Example 2: Using stop-instance in remote mode

       asadmin> stop-instance --user admin --password bluestar --host localhost --port 4848 server1
       Instance server1 stopped
