Hi all!
I'm really hoping you can help me out here; now i have searched and searched and have at least worked out that you can't have a nested if statement with a 'done' in it (as i have) as you're killing the parent before the child.
So here's what i have, and here's hoping someone can help me think of a work around! FYI, i'm using bash on a custom linux build, fairly standard based around red hat i believe(?)
The script is to find all attached USB devices, and copy a folders contents to it. The issue is within the variable check at the start, and the two unmounting after replication parts.
Theres a few other parts later on which i haven't posted which have a similar issue- so any ideas would be great!
Code:
# Assigning Drive variables and locating available disks.
alldrives=$(df -h | grep sda | awk '{print$1}' | cut -c1-8)
d1=$(echo $alldrives | awk '{print$1}')
d2=$(echo $alldrives | awk '{print$2}')
d3=$(echo $alldrives | awk '{print$3}')
d4=$(echo $alldrives | awk '{print$4}')
d5=$(echo $alldrives | awk '{print$5}')
d6=$(echo $alldrives | awk '{print$6}')
d7=$(echo $alldrives | awk '{print$7}')
d8=$(echo $alldrives | awk '{print$8}')
d9=$(echo $alldrives | awk '{print$9}')
d10=$(echo $alldrives | awk '{print$10}')
for i in $d1 $d2 $d3 $d4 $d5 $d6 $d7 $d8 $d9 $d10
do
if [[ -z $i ]]
then
echo "Variable blank, moving to next"
done
fi
#CHECK FOR MOUNTABLE DRIVE, MAKE DIR FOR IT
mkdir /mnt/clone/
if mount "$i""1" /mnt/clone/"$i""1"
then
# START REPLICATION
echo "BEGINNING RSYNC REPLICATION"
rsync -rtv --progress --modify-window=1 --exclude=LOCAL.CFG /usr/local/FOLDER1 /mnt/clone/"$i""1"/usr/local/FOLDER1
echo
# UNMOUNT AFTER REPLICATION
if umount /mnt/clone/"$i""1"
then
echo "Unmounted Successfully. Copying Complete."
done
else
# FORCE IF UNABLE TO UNMOUNT
echo "Forcing unmount..."
sync
sleep 15
cd /
umount -f /mnt/clone/"$i""1"
done

Hi -
Trying to take a list of ldap suffixes in a file, run an ldapsearch command on them, then run a grep command to see if it's a match, if not, then flag that and send an email alert.
The list file (ldaplist) would look like -

o=company a
o=company b

echo
echo(1B) SunOS/BSD Compatibility Package Commands echo(1B)NAME
echo - echo arguments to standard output
SYNOPSIS
/usr/ucb/echo [-n] [argument]
DESCRIPTION
echo writes its arguments, separated by BLANKs and terminated by a NEWLINE, to the standard output.
echo is useful for producing diagnostics in command files and for sending known data into a pipe, and for displaying the contents of envi-
ronment variables.
For example, you can use echo to determine how many subdirectories below the root directory (/) is your current directory, as follows:
o echo your current-working-directory's full pathname
o pipe the output through tr to translate the path's embedded slash-characters into space-characters
o pipe that output through wc -w for a count of the names in your path.
example% /usr/bin/echo "echo $PWD | tr '/' ' ' | wc -w"
See tr(1) and wc(1) for their functionality.
The shells csh(1), ksh(1), and sh(1), each have an echo built-in command, which, by default, will have precedence, and will be invoked if
the user calls echo without a full pathname. /usr/ucb/echo and csh's echo() have an -n option, but do not understand back-slashed escape
characters. sh's echo(), ksh's echo(), and /usr/bin/echo, on the other hand, understand the black-slashed escape characters, and ksh's
echo() also understands a as the audible bell character; however, these commands do not have an -n option.
OPTIONS -n Do not add the NEWLINE to the output.
