UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

Hi All expert,

I am about to perform remote shell to another unix server. But whenever i logged in into the remote server, the message prompt, "Setting up environment for MCI backend databases on Oracle 9.2^J"

I'm suppose to rsh and cat a flat file that return only number.
I tried "nohup" but the message prompt is still there.

May i know how to eliminate this message?

My sample code is

Code:

RETURN_CODE=`nohup rsh 10.1.72.232 -l intcrms "cat /SYSTEM/custom/scripts/CIDM/KENAN_DAT/logs/${FILE_PREFIX}_${TDATE}_extractStatus.log`

RETURN_CODE supposed to return either "1" or "0"
But it returned as,
"Setting up environment for MCI backend databases on Oracle 9.2^J1"

Have you checked the content of the logfile /SYSTEM/custom/scripts/CIDM/KENAN_DAT/logs/${FILE_PREFIX}_${TDATE}_extractStatus.log?

On what platform are you? And you should not use nohup... if on solaris try -n option...

Hi Vbe,

I've checked the output file, it returned "1".
I'm running in HP-UX platform.

Thanks in advance.

Have you tried:

Code:

remsh 10.1.72.232 -l intcrms -n cat /SYSTEM/custom/scripts/CIDM/KENAN_DAT/logs/${FILE_PREFIX}_${TDATE}_extractStatus.log &
