Description

TestPipelinesFailover.java contains the following:

    scmd = new String[] {"ifconfig"};
    sce = new ShellCommandExecutor(scmd);
    sce.execute();
    System.out.println("'ifconfig' output:\n" + sce.getOutput());

That assumes the Linux ifconfig command. If the flag "-a" is added, the same invocation should work on both Linux and Solaris - the output is only displayed for debugging purposes so the fact that the output of ifconfig is different on Linux and Solaris shouldn't matter.
