No problem. Thanks for the clarification.

I actually kind of like the failure if it already exists, because I like
to monitor for these conditions.

subject: RE: Best way to create a directory tree on the IFS?

Not so in my case. I got an error if the directory tree already
exists.

QSH CMD('mkdir -p /home/PDF/username/2010/03/21/')


Dang! You're right! I ran this out untested because I *trusted* that
QSH
followed KornShell standard, as it almost always does. But,
disappointingly, not in this case.

So that you know, the man page on mkdir states, about the -p switch: "No
error if existing, make parent directories as needed." But I was wrong
to
post without testing.
