bash-3.00# ./test.sh 100 10
./test.sh: syntax error at line 6: `(' unexpected
bash-3.00# cat test.sh
#!/bin/sh
start=0
end=$1
interval=$2
iostat -xnpr > disk_iostats.csv
for (( start=0; $start<=$end; start=$(($start+$interval)) ))

sleep $interval
iostat -xnpr | grep -v device >> disk_iostats.csv

bash-3.00#
Hello Experts, i'm stuck with some silly problme here with for, not sure where i'm doing wrong. can somebody point me my mistake in the above script?
:: two arguments i'm taking are end (which tels how many secs to run) and interval (which tells the interval of every run of iostat)
the above script runs fine on linux but not on solaris!?
Thanks for your time.

gst-complete-0.8
gst-complete-0.8(1) User Commands gst-complete-0.8(1)
NAME
gst-complete-0.8, gst-complete - perform bash completion for gst-launch command lines
SYNOPSIS
complete -Cgst-complete-0.8 gst-launch
gst-complete [--gst-list-mm] [--gst-mm=string] [--print]
DESCRIPTION
gst-complete-0.8 enables bash to provide context-sensitive tab completion for gst-launch command lines. See gst-launch(1) for the syntax of
gst-launch command lines.
You must have a version of bash that supports programmable completion. Such versions of bash provide the complete built-in command.
gst-complete is a wrapper script that runs the latest installed version of gst-complete-X.X. For example, if both gst-complete-0.7 and gst-
complete-0.8 are installed on your system, gst-complete runs gst-complete-0.8.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported by gst-complete-0.8 and gst-complete:
--help Display detailed usage message. You can also use -? to specify this option.
The following options are supported by gst-complete only:
--gst-list-mm List found major/minor versions. This option displays the versions that are available.
--gst-mm=string Force major/minor version. This option enables you to specify a specific version to run, if you do not want to run the
default version.
--print Print wrapped command line. This option displays the command that will be run, and then runs the command.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Generating the Registry of Available Plugins by Running gst-compprep
Run the following command in your .bash_profile or other appropriate place:
example% complete -C gst-complete-0.8 gst-launch
Example 2: Running the Wrapper Script and Displaying the Command Name
example% gst-complete --print
/usr/bin/gst-complete-0.8
FILES
The following files are used by this application:
/usr/bin/gst-complete-0.Executable for bash completion for gst-launch
