Shell script process remains after "exit 1"
I have a script that performs an oracle export:

Code:
<snip>
if [ ${exp_type} = FULL ]
then
        exp / full=y file=${exp_file} log=${exp_log} direct=y feedback=1000000 STATISTICS=NONE buffer=20000000
else
        exp / full=n owner=${schema_name} file=${exp_file} log=${exp_log} direct=y feedback=1000000 STATISTICS=NONE buffer=20000000
fi

if [ $? -ne 0 ]
then
        echo "Export command failed"
        exit 1
fi
echo "Export command succeeded"
exit 0

If the export succeeds then I get the message and the script ends with no process in memory. However, if it fails, the script stops (ie. doesn't display "Export Succeeded") but the process remains:

Code:
> ps -ef|grep export
oracle   23241     1  0 10:04 pts/1    00:00:00 /bin/bash /u01/ct_scr/export.sh TAXTST FULL Y

Anyone know what's happening here?

parse_dynamic_clustertoc

parse_dynamic_clustertoc(1M)				  System Administration Commands			      parse_dynamic_clustertoc(1M)

NAME

       parse_dynamic_clustertoc - parse clustertoc file based on dynamic entries

SYNOPSIS

       cdrom/export/exec/sparc.Solaris_2.x/sbin/install.d/parse_dynamic_clustertoc

       cdrom/export/exec/i386.Solaris_2.x/sbin/install.d/parse_dynamic_clustertoc

DESCRIPTION

       This script parses the  clustertoc file before the suninstall(1M) process is run.  parse_dynamic_clustertoc is called by a modified syscon-
       fig script on the install CD.  When parse_dynamic_clustertoc runs, it reads the clustertoc and when it encounters SUNW_CSRMBRIFF lines,	it
       either  checks  the  platform  using the script's builtin function, or calls an external script.  The script exits with	a 0 if the cluster
       entry is included,  otherwise it will be ignored.  If the cluster entry is to be included, the SUNW_CSRMBRIFF =(test test_arg)cluster  line
       is converted to SUNW_CSRMEMBER =cluster.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1: Checking For an SX Framebuffer

       The  following is an example of a simple external test to check for an SX Framebuffer.  The entry in the  clustertoc file is shown and fol-
       lowing that is the script that must be placed in the  install.d/dynamic_test directory.

       SUNW_CSRMBRIFF=(smcc.dctoc sx)SUNWCsx
       #! /bin/sh
       #
       # Likewise, this file is expected to live under $(TESTDIR).
       #
       case "$1"
       in
	       sx)     prtconf -p  | grep 'SUNW,sx' 1> /dev/null;;
       esac
