TEE(1) User Commands TEE(1)NAME
tee - read from standard input and write to standard output and files
SYNOPSIS
tee [OPTION]... [FILE]...
DESCRIPTION
Copy standard input to each FILE, and also to standard output.
-a, --append
append to the given FILEs, do not overwrite
-i, --ignore-interrupts
ignore interrupt signals
-p diagnose errors writing to non pipes
--output-error[=MODE]
set behavior on write error. See MODE below
--help display this help and exit
--version
output version information and exit
MODE determines behavior with write errors on the outputs:
'warn' diagnose errors writing to any output
'warn-nopipe'
diagnose errors writing to any output not a pipe
'exit' exit on error writing to any output
'exit-nopipe'
exit on error writing to any output not a pipe
The default MODE for the -p option is 'warn-nopipe'. The default operation when --output-error is not specified, is to exit immediately on
error writing to a pipe, and diagnose errors writing to non pipe outputs.

I get unexpected results when doing ls -al | more and ls -al | grep.
When I do not pipe the output, it comes to the screen just fine, and there is output!
When I pipe to another command, I either get nothing, or else I get a strange dump.
Which of the outputs have I accidentally affected?... (2 Replies)

Hi All,
How does Solaris 9/10 alert the server? Where do you get the error on the server?
Is there some kind of verifying of errors (like in AIX, CERTIFY resources or diagnose)?
Please let me know.
Thanks,

I am using grep and I want the output to go into two files without going to the screen. I used tee to get the output into two files, but it is also putting the output on the screen which i do not want. Can this be fixed. (2 Replies)

Someone recently advised me to use the tee command to write to standard out.
Why would you pipe your commands to
tee -a <filename>
rather than just using
>> <filename>
?
For example:
date|tee -a myfile
seems to be the same as
date >> myfile
Is there a benefit to... (5 Replies)
I have been using the command tee to store the output to a file and also write on the terminal. However I would need to put the program in the background although I would still need to see the file being updated like it was doing when using tee.
Any suggestions on how to look at the log file... (3 Replies)
