Please correct the code tags, it is difficult to read.
Also, paste the output of sh -x yourscript

Please paste the output of
Code:
sh -x yourscript

The code tags you are using is wrong, it is a forward slash

The grep command is getting 2 values for tellabs7100
Code:
0 for tellabs7100
30 for tellabs7100N

and that is why the value 0^J30 is seen, ^J is actually unix line feed.

Since grep-ing for tellabs7100 will match both the lines containing tellabs7100 and tellabs7100N.

Add the switch -w to the grep statement.
Code:
...
size=`grep -w "$queue" ${configfile} | cut -d " " -f2`
...

And try to avoid the UUoC
