{bb} bbshutup.sh - worked in 1.6x but not in 1.9x

["Jonathan Mergy" <mergy@natus.com>]

We use a shell script to disable bb
for a brief while if we are doing scheduled downtime. Here it is - it doesn't
seem to fly now and I don't know why. Any ideas? There was some modification
needed but even that didn't fix it. Are there others out there using something
similar?

Usage: $0 machine.natusmed.com.service
time \"reason\"

Machine parameters: FQDN, service is
the code used by BB for
        whichever
test is relevant (disk, conn; \* matches all-
        note the
backslash, without it the shell will try to
        interpret
your * and the command will fail)
Time parameters: s m h d shorthand for
seconds mintues hours days,
        ergo 15s
is 15 seconds, 15m is 15 mintues, etc.
Reason parameters: What will show in
the webpage as the reason
        the service
is disabled. Note: you must use quotes around
        your reason
field, else the shell will interpret the spaces
        as more
varabiles, and you will get this error message."
