I am trying to get a script to work but am getting stuck on my for loop...

scsi_info.log

2 0 2 42
3 0 2 42
0 0 2 25
0 0 2 33
1 0 2 33
2 0 2 28
3 0 2 28

for i in `cat scsi_info.log`;do cat $i;done

This output gives me all the numbers listed in the file scsi_info.log but lists them on individual lines instead of one line.

Ultimately I would like to run the command below in a script;

echo "scsi remove-single-device 2 0 2 42" >/proc/scsi/scsi
echo "scsi remove-single-device 3 0 2 42" >/proc/scsi/scsi
Etc...

So my loop looks like this;

for i in `cat scsi_info.log`;do echo "scsi remove-single-device $i" >/proc/scsi/scsi;done

However since $i outputs each individual number this command fails.

Anyone have any suggestions on how to correct this?

Thanks

try something like this:
| while read i; do ..... $i; done; will store each line in i

That worked great, thanks for the quick reply
