yes you are totaly right, I was editing part of the script...and i missed out something...so the egrep is like below...its looking for a word called NBU at end of each line...if there is one then it obviously greps it...i will edit the original post as well...thanks...
Code:
egrep -i ":NBU" $ORATAB | grep -v "^#" | grep -v "\*" | cut -d":" -f1 | sort | uniq

do
 ... ... ...
done

which means that you are asking egrep to look for the string "/etc/oratab" (matching uppercase or lowercase letters) from lines it reads from standard input. What input are you feeding into this script?

If instead you are grepping /etc/oratab and just didn't show us the ERE your looking for in /etc/oratab, please tell us what the ERE is and show us the contents of /etc/oratab.
---------- Post updated at 01:57 PM ---------- Previous update was at 01:53 PM ----------

here is output of /etc/oratab

Code:
test1:/oracle/ORAHOME/112_64:N:NBU
ptst:/oracle/ORAHOME/REP:N:NBU
alpd:/oracle/alpd/REP:Y
dsd:/oracle/ORAHOME/112_64:Y:NBU
yyd:/oracle/ORAHOME/112_64:Y:NBU
u1u:/oracle/ORAHOME/u1u:Y:NBU
