I've made a number of errors with this and am trying to work a solution within the same framework.
Code:
/bin/ksh
for host_name in ahost1 ahost2 bhost1 bhost2
do
for host_prefix in a b
do
if echo ${host_name} | grep -qi ${host_prefix}
then
if [ ${proc_check} -eq 0 ]
then
${host_prefix}_active=${host_name}
else
${host_prefix}_failover=${host_name}
fi
fi
done
done
#
echo "a group active = ${a_active}"
echo "a group failover = ${a_failover}"
echo "b group active = ${b_active}"
echo "b group failover = ${b_failover}"
I advise against dynamically-generated variable names in general, it's usually cleaner to use arrays, but they do have some uses for things like parsing configuration files.
The safest way to set an arbitrary variable name is read. This should work in most Bourne shells.
