How could I have missed isi status [IMAGE]  Seems it only checks wether output goes to terminal or to a file or pipe -- no color then.  Simply use: isi status | cat  or capture the output to a plain file first.  hth  -- Peter
Hi All,  I am working on a simple synchronous SSH solution for Isilon, my SSH client is working as expected, but the only problem is that it cannot interpret the color coding in the ssh command results. Hence need to use the correct terminal type so that Isilon will not return any special formatted text like colored or underlined. I had similar problem in VNX file(celerra), I have changed the terminal type from "xterm"(default) to "dump" and this has fixed the problem. For Isilon I have tried different terminal types like vt100,dumb,xterm & xterm-old, none of this are removing the special formatted text.  So does anyone know what terminal type to use in Isilon to remove the special formatting of the text?  Regards, Abhilash.
