Problem with While Loop in AIX Server
Hello,

I am trying to run the following Script on AIX Server. The script checks if first field is EFFECTIVE_TIME , if it is then it converts second field in readable format else it redirects entire line to $MAIL. Both the mentioned files exists prior to running the script

Code:
#!/bin/ksh
MAIL=~/backup_scripts/Changed_Policy_Details.txt
TMP=~/backup_scripts/List_of_Changed_Policies_tmp1.txt
while read line
do
read -a arr <<< $line
if [[ ${arr[0]} == EFFECTIVE_TIME ]];then
a=`perl -le "print scalar(localtime(${arr[1]}))"`
echo ${arr[0]} $a >> $MAIL
else
echo $line >> $MAIL
fi
done < $TMP

The $TMP and $MAIL File exists and the contents of $TMP are as follows :

Code:
Contents of /usr/openv/hpbackup/db/class/serverfgt/info :


ACTIVE 1
EFFECTIVE_TIME 1279345218
GRANULAR_RESTORE_INFO 0


Contents of /usr/openv/hpbackup/db/class/servertyg/schedule/Full/days :


0 13400 21000
1 0 0
2 0 0
3 0 0
4 0 0
5 0 0
6 0 0

Contents of /usr/openv/hpbackup/db/class/serverglt/info :


ACTIVE 0
EFFECTIVE_TIME 1279643561
GRANULAR_RESTORE_INFO 1

I am getting following error from AIX 5.3.

Code:
0403-057 Syntax error at line 4 : `<' is not expected

Could someone please help. I am not getting errors on Red Hat Server but problem only on AIX.

Thanks
Rahul
