Why does this if match although it shouldn't?

Hi everyboy,

I am a little confused and can't understand why I get a positive match in the following case.

Shell Script section
Code:
echo $SHELL
echo "Server type = ${SERV_TYPE}"
if [[ "${SERV_TYPE}" == ["sapapp+oradb" || "sapapp"] ]]; then
    echo "foor"
    echo -e $(_date) "${cinfo}INFO: ${crst}Checking SAP memory on ${HOST}"

This is the output
Code:
/bin/bash
Server type = hanadb
foor
2018-02-23 12:21:41 INFO: Checking SAP memory on test0815

My need is that the if statement checks variable SERV_TYPE and exactly matches "sapapp+oradb" or "sapapp". So that in my example this should not match, but somehow it does Smilie

Could anyone please help me to understand what is going on here and what I have done wrong?

Kind Regards,
h1kelds

NAME
ppmtosixel - convert a portable pixmap into DEC sixel format SYNOPSIS
ppmtosixel [-raw] [-margin] [ppmfile] DESCRIPTION
Reads a portable pixmap as input. Produces sixel commands (SIX) as output. The output is formatted for color printing, e.g. for a DEC LJ250 color inkjet printer. If RGB values from the PPM file do not have maxval=100, the RGB values are rescaled. A printer control header and a color assignment table begin the SIX file. Image data is written in a compressed format by default. A printer control footer ends the image file. OPTIONS
-raw If specified, each pixel will be explicitly described in the image file. If -raw is not specified, output will default to com- pressed format in which identical adjacent pixels are replaced by "repeat pixel" commands. A raw file is often an order of magni- tude larger than a compressed file and prints much slower. -margin If -margin is not specified, the image will be start at the left margin (of the window, paper, or whatever). If -margin is speci- fied, a 1.5 inch left margin will offset the image. PRINTING
Generally, sixel files must reach the printer unfiltered. Use the lpr -x option or cat filename > /dev/tty0?. BUGS
Upon rescaling, truncation of the least significant bits of RGB values may result in poor color conversion. If the original PPM maxval was greater than 100, rescaling also reduces the image depth. While the actual RGB values from the ppm file are more or less retained, the color palette of the LJ250 may not match the colors on your screen. This seems to be a printer limitation. SEE ALSO
