Hi Steve,
Off-hand I'm not sure what changed in the output formatting, but have you
looked into use the "-tabdelimited" and "-dataonly=yes" options on the
dsmadmc command line? This should overall make parsing much easier than
trying to handle the default formatting. For example:
dsmadmc -id=adminid -pa=secret -tabdelimited -dataonly=yes
-outfile=select.out select node_name, status, result, ...
