ENVIRONMENT: Solaris 8 on a Sun V480 + Progress 9.1D06
While a full backup to tape is happening, I exectuted these commands:
rhunt >proutil /Custima/Database/BDB/bdb -C busy
** The database /Custima/Database/BDB/bdb is in use in single-user mode. (263)
rhunt >echo $?
6
QUESTION: The Progress manual does say 6 is returned if the DB is busy --- but I was under the (apparently incorrect) impression that 1 was returned if the DB is in use in single-user mode. Was a change made at some point?
rhunt >fred=$(proutil /Custima/Database/BDB/bdb -C busy)
rhunt >echo $fred

(263)
QUESTION: What's going on here?
The value of the variable fred is every file in the current directory ... followed by the message from proutil. I'm stumped. I can't see what has caused the file names to appear.
Is it a Solaris bug, a ksh bug, a Progress bug, or my misunderstanding?
Can anyone shed light on these two questions?
