Summary

On RHEL 6.x nodes SAP SPI shell scripts fail due to missing /usr/bin/ksh interpreter. /usr/bin/ksh should be linked to exiting interpreter to resolve.

Question

SAP SPI shell scripts use /usr/bin/ksh interpreter, which is not available on RH EL 6.x nodes.
However /bin/ksh is available.

Answer

A workaround solution in order to get instrumentation scripts working would be to create a link to wherever ksh is available.
    ln – s <KSH path> /usr/bin/ksh

For example:
    ln -s /bin/ksh /usr/bin/ksh
