Guys for more detail please find the code
b.txt contents:
Object (,BDRJX648,001,T_BDRTARGE,BDRXTRSDS,001) extracted
Object (,BDRMX100,001,T_BDRTARG2,BDRXTR,001) extracted


Code:
Code:
function pln
{
echo   "TO EXPORT PLANNIFICATION GIVE PLANNIFICATION NAME IN THE input.txt and Management unit in the mu.txt and PRESS Y EX:BDRMX100"
echo   "TO GO BACK PRESS 99"
read parm0
if [ "$parm0" == "99" ];
then
start
elif [ "$parm0" == "Y" ];
then
while read EachRecord
do
s=`echo $EachRecord | cut -d " " -f1`
p=`echo $EachRecord | cut -d " " -f2`
echo $s
echo $p
$UXEXE/uxext tsk ses=$s vses=* upr=* model mu=$p output=${p}_$s.pnf APP | tee -a log.txt
sed 's;^ *;;;s; *, *;,;g;s; *$;;' log.txt > b.txt
done < input.txt
counter=0
while read z
do
z=$(awk -F"," '{ print $4"_"$2}' b.txt)
echo $z
#tar -cvf plannification.tar ${m}_${n}.pnf
echo "tar -Cvf"
if [ "$counter" > 0 ]
then
    #tar -rvf plannification.tar ${m}_$n.pnf
    echo " tar -rvf process"
else
    echo "Tar CVF"
fi
counter=`expr $counter + 1`
echo $counter
done < b.txt
fi
}




o/p:
BDRJX648
T_BDRTARGE
Object ( , BDRJX648  , 001, T_BDRTARGE, BDRXTRSDS , 001) extracted              
BDRMX100
T_BDRTARG2
Object ( , BDRMX100  , 001, T_BDRTARG2, BDRXTR    , 001) extracted              
T_BDRTARGE_BDRJX648 T_BDRTARG2_BDRMX100
tar -Cvf
 tar -rvf process
1
T_BDRTARGE_BDRJX648 T_BDRTARG2_BDRMX100
tar -Cvf
 tar -rvf process
2


PROBLM:While loop must do first time tar -cvf and after for all values of z it must do tar -rvf

virt-tar-out

virt-tar-out(1) 					      Virtualization Support						   virt-tar-out(1)

NAME

       virt-tar-out - Pack a virtual machine disk image directory into a tarball.

SYNOPSIS

	virt-tar-out -a disk.img /dir files.tar

	virt-tar-out -d domain /dir files.tar

	virt-tar-out -d domain /dir - | gzip --best > files.tar.gz

DESCRIPTION

       "virt-tar-out" packs a virtual machine disk image directory into a tarball.

       The first parameter is the absolute path of the virtual machine directory.  The second parameter is the tar file to write.  Use "-" to
       write to standard output.

EXAMPLES

       Download the home directories from a guest:

	virt-tar-out -d MyGuest /home - | gzip --best > homes.tar.gz

JUST A SHELL SCRIPT WRAPPER AROUND GUESTFISH

       This command is just a simple shell script wrapper around the guestfish(1) "tar-out" command.  For anything more complex than a trivial
       copy, you are probably better off using guestfish directly.

OPTIONS

       Since the shell script just passes options straight to guestfish, read guestfish(1) to see the full list of options.

SEE ALSO

       guestfish(1), virt-cat(1), virt-copy-in(1), virt-copy-out(1), virt-edit(1), virt-tar-in(1), <http://libguestfs.org/>.
