We are doing batch script for backup. The server is IBM RS/6000 AIX 4.3.3
version. The script supportly should show backup messages on monitor screen and
also on log file. I test the script and look like "tee" does NOT put screen
messages to file.

my backup script are:

for i in `cat /home/backup/lvdir`
do
/usr/sbin/backup -0 -u -f /dev/rmt1.1 $i |tee -a /tmp/backup.log
echo "* \n" >>/tmp/backup.log
echo "* End of backup file system: $i \n" >>/tmp/backup.log
echo "********************************** \n" >>/tmp/backup.log
echo "* \n" >>/tmp/backup.log
done

Any ideal?

Thanks.

Are you sure that those backup messages are not sent to stderr ?
If yes, you can redirect also stderr with

.... backup ... $i 2>&1 | tee -a ...

Use the full path to tee and it should work.
