Yep, I'm starting to do this too.  But I am logging in from home and doing
it by hand.  Automation is the way to go.

If someone already has this took I am interested as well!

Eric,  You didn't mention your environment (AIX?, Windows?).  Our server is
Windows, but I installed the M$ UNIX tool kit that has awk and a few other
toys that helps in the conversion of *nix scripts.

Hi *SM-ers!
I'm trying to create a script which does the following:
1) query the server for any running reclamation
2) retrieves the process id for this reclamation
3) cancels the reclamation
4) starts a backup storage pool
Can this be done in one script? If so, how do I put the process id in a
variable which I can parse to the cancel command?
Thank you very much for any reply in advance!!
Kindest regards,
Eric van Loon
