Unable to get terminal attribute!
Hi,

I'm using scli (Command line utility) to retrieve the information about qlogic HBA and I want to redirect the information to text file.

* While execution I'm getting the following warning "Unable to get terminal attribute!"
How to avoid that ?
because of this "Unable to get terminal attribute!" error, my output file is filled with lines like below
Code:
"-\|/-\|/-\|/-\|/-\|/-\|/-\|/-\|/-\"

Regards,
Shanthakumar K

By giving it a terminal, apparently... it seems to check whether its output is or not.
