Error description

  • Starting with version 8.1.21.0, a BASH script is provided
    to automate the distribution of an IBM Storage Protect server
    certificate to clients. Information is available in the online
    documentation at the following link :
    
    https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/storage-protect/8.1.21?topic=errors-
    automating-distribution-storage-protect-server-certificate-clien
    ts
    
    The BASH script uses the $BASH_REMATCH array which is not
    available for korn shells.
    
    A new KORN script is needed, and instructions need to be
    updated in the online documentation.
    
    IBM Storage Protect Versions Affected:
    IBM Storage Protect server 8.1.21.0 and above on all platforms.
