Hi, I use this function (now modified with elif) for check if a pc is up:
Code:
check_pc() {
$PING $PC 1 2> /dev/null
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
check_dir #Other function
echo "Begin backup operation for $PC"
echo "$SMBTAR -s $PC -u $USER -p $PASS -x $SHARE$EXCL -t - | gzip -c > $PC.tar.gz"
echo "End backup operation for $PC"
echo ""
elif [ $? -eq 1 ]; then
echo "Unable to ping $PC"
echo ""
else
#Not in /etc/hosts
echo "Unable to find $PC"
echo ""
fi
} #end check_pc
But.. With
Code:
$PING $PC 1 2> /dev/null
output like no answer from pc3 don't finish in /dev/null ... If I try
Code:
$PING $PC 1 > /dev/null
don't finish in /dev/null /usr/sbin/ping: unknown host pc123. How redirect error and output in /dev/null?
And.. can I use ping error to write in a log file "Unable to find $PC".. now the last else don't work. I use /bin/sh ... Thanks, bye.

LEARN ABOUT SUNOS
echo
echo(1B) SunOS/BSD Compatibility Package Commands echo(1B)NAME
echo - echo arguments to standard output
SYNOPSIS
/usr/ucb/echo [-n] [argument]
DESCRIPTION
echo writes its arguments, separated by BLANKs and terminated by a NEWLINE, to the standard output.
echo is useful for producing diagnostics in command files and for sending known data into a pipe, and for displaying the contents of envi-
ronment variables.
For example, you can use echo to determine how many subdirectories below the root directory (/) is your current directory, as follows:
o echo your current-working-directory's full pathname
o pipe the output through tr to translate the path's embedded slash-characters into space-characters
o pipe that output through wc -w for a count of the names in your path.
example% /usr/bin/echo "echo $PWD | tr '/' ' ' | wc -w"
See tr(1) and wc(1) for their functionality.
The shells csh(1), ksh(1), and sh(1), each have an echo built-in command, which, by default, will have precedence, and will be invoked if
the user calls echo without a full pathname. /usr/ucb/echo and csh's echo() have an -n option, but do not understand back-slashed escape
characters. sh's echo(), ksh's echo(), and /usr/bin/echo, on the other hand, understand the black-slashed escape characters, and ksh's
echo() also understands a as the audible bell character; however, these commands do not have an -n option.
OPTIONS -n Do not add the NEWLINE to the output.
