Scripting - CLI on HP-UX

[dsb0]

First Post - New to 3Par moving from XP12000. All systems are HP-UX

Writing the Pre and Post exec scripts for my weekly Cold backup. Got most of it working with 1 exception.

The initial sync of the Physical copy. When I issue the commands in a script for each (59) virtual volumes to pair with it's physical copy, the first 10-12 say starting or queuing, then it gives me the following message

"Error: VV namaca158_prd_sapdata1.0 is currently busy. Please try this operation after a while"
(this is the original Base volume in the message no the physical copy volume)

It gives this message 5-8 times then starts/queues a couple more then more Busy messages.

If I cut and paste the same commands all at once into the CLI attched directly to the 3par using PuTTy it accepts them all and will run/queue them all but issuing them individually in a shell script it won't.

Any Help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave B.

Found additional information

These timeout errors only happen when the "Remote Copy Task" is active to our Disaster recovery Site.

Opening a Case with HP on Monday. Will Post results.

Reply from HP is:

"That is going to happen. You need to code for this and retry the commands that fail".

Not exactly what I was looking for but it's a work around.
