Let me start over...

This script will perform the following:

for IMAGE in `cat /tmp/dates.lst`
do
sudo bpimagelist -L -client server1 -d $IMAGE -e $IMAGE -policy INT-UNIX-Servers | egrep -i 'Backup ID:'| awk '!x[$0]++'
done | awk '{print$3}' >> /tmp/intershopimages

1) Uses /tmp/dates ( file with a single column of dates ) using IMAGE as the variable for the date range

2) Uses a set of specific client ( server1 )

3) To find all available backups ( that can be used to restore from )

4) Passes the output to /tmp/intershopimages

5) Problem is I have 65+ clients to run this command for ( I just change Server1 to Server2, etc... and run it 65 times yuck! )

6) Is there a way I can add a second variable ( IMAGE2 ) and assign that to another file that contains the clients ( /tmp/clients )?

I am looking for it to

Loop1:
Finds first client
Finds first date
Finds all available backups for the first client only

Loop2:
Finds first client
Finds second date
Finds all available backups for the first client only

It would eventually loop through for the first client for every date then goto the next client found in the list

Loop3:
Finds second client
Finds first date
Finds all available backups for the second client only

Loop4:
Finds second client
Finds second date
Finds all available backups for the second client only

etc... until every clients backups were found.

Thank you

is_scalar - Finds whether a variable is a scalar

SYNOPSIS
bool is_scalar (mixed $var) DESCRIPTION
Finds whether the given variable is a scalar. Scalar variables are those containing an integer, float, string or boolean. Types array, object and resource are not scalar. Note is_scalar(3) does not consider resource type values to be scalar as resources are abstract datatypes which are currently based on integers. This implementation detail should not be relied upon, as it may change. Note is_scalar(3) does not consider NULL to be scalar. PARAMETERS
o $var - The variable being evaluated. RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE if $var is a scalar, FALSE otherwise. EXAMPLES
Example #1 is_scalar(3) example <?php function show_var($var) { if (is_scalar($var)) { echo $var; } else { var_dump($var); } } $pi = 3.1416; $proteins = array("hemoglobin", "cytochrome c oxidase", "ferredoxin"); show_var($pi); show_var($proteins) ?> The above example will output: 3.1416 array(3) { [0]=> string(10) "hemoglobin" [1]=> string(20) "cytochrome c oxidase" [2]=> string(10) "ferredoxin" } SEE ALSO
