The script outputs the value of offline after that echo. When we get to cpu7, it shows that offline = 1, which appears to be correct behavior. Then after each line I also output the return code of echo. It's just that Nathan suggested echo should return a 1 in that instance when my scripts are showing echo appears to be returning 0 no matter the outcome. Unless I got $? confused with something else... Mark
