Redirect and append output to different files
Hi,

I need to redirect the command output to file1 and append the output to file2 at the same time.

As of now am using below,

Code:
command | tee -a file2 | tee file1

problem with the above is, the status is always 0, irrespective of "command"

For example,
Code:
ls -l file | tee -a file2 | tee file1

If file does not exist also the return status is 0.

Any suggestions ..

TIA

       -i	Ignores interrupts.

OPERANDS

       The following operands are supported:

       file	A path name of an output file.	Processing of at least 13 file operands will be supported.

USAGE

       See largefile(5) for the description of the behavior of tee when encountering files greater than or equal to 2 Gbyte ( 2**31 bytes).

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0	The standard input was successfully copied to all output files.
