while read LINE issue
Hi,
This is the script and the error I am receiving
Can anyone please suggest ?

For the exmaple below assume we are using vg01

Code:
#!/bin/ksh
echo "##### Max Mount Count Fixer #####"
echo "Please insert Volume Group name to check"
read VG
lvs |grep $VG | awk {'print $1'} > /tmp/audit.log


while read LV
do
	export max=`tune2fs -l /dev/$VG/$LV |grep Max |awk {'print $4'}` <<EOF
	if [[ $max -ne 0 ]] ; then
	echo "I am working on $VG and $LV" 
	tune2fs -c 0 /dev/$VG/$LV 
EOF
done < /tmp/audit.log


ERROR:


Code:
./check.ksh: line 4: syntax error at line 14: `done' unexpected

1. There's no 'fi' to your 'if'
2. Looks like 'export' is not required here. Are you planning on using the value stored in variable 'max' outside this script too? I don't think so.
3. Try removing <<EOF and EOF.
