of course instead of echo you'll want to execute the appropriate script.

Hi Friends,<br />
Need your help to draft shell script which will perform following functions.<br />
Source file, which contains first argument as server name, second argument filesystem type and third is command to take backup.<br />
<br />
Filename - servername.txt<br />
Servername:/var/log:arc<br />
Servername:/var/:backup<br />
Servername:/var/log:qfiles<wbr /><br />
Servername:/var/log:arc<br />
<br />
The script will first scan the servername.txt file, and depending on the second and third argument it will execute shell script.<br />
If the second and third argument is “/var/log” and “arc” then it will execute the script 1<br />
If the second and third argument is “/var/” and “backup” then it will execute sscript2<br />
If the second and third argument is “/var/log” and qfiles &nbsp;then it will excute script3 <br />
If the second and third argument is “/var” and “qfiles” then execute script4 <br />
Else argument specified is not valid.<br />
Thanks<br />

Shell script

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.

Unix OS

The term 'shell' refers to a general class of text-based command interpreters most often associated with the UNIX and Linux operating systems. Popular shells include Bourne, Debian Almquist (dash), Korn (ksh), Bourne Again (bash) and the C shell family (csh). Some view the DOS 'cmd' prompt as a minimal shell of sorts. It is also possible to install Cygwin on Windows and emulate a full Unix environment with complete shell capabilities. Terminal emulators, such as xterm, GNOME Terminal and OS X Terminal, can be used to access shell.
