Thank you for correcting and showing me a better different way to do the while 
loops, but instead of the
two for loops printing the following out:

emcpowera   sdbd sddg sdfj sdhm   #  <- [1st for loop output]
emcpoweraa  sdae sdch sdek sdgn   # These the available emcpower disks and 
their associate devices
emcpowerbc  sdb sdbe sddh sdfk
emcpowerc   sdbb sdde sdfh sdhk
emcpowerd   sdba sddd sdfg sdhj   # <- [end of 1st for loop]

emcpowera1  /dwpdb006             # <- [2nd for loop output]
emcpoweraa1 /dwpdb033             # These are the local emcpower* disk 
paritions and their local mount points.
emcpowerbc1 /s00_11               # Note that the emcpowerbc disk has 2 
partitions, 1 and 2 below.
emcpowerbc2 /utl_file_dir
emcpowerc1  /odsdb006
emcpowerd1  /odsdb005             # <- [end of 2nd for loop]

How can I match the emcpower partitions ie: emcpowera1 as a result from the 2nd 
loop, to the emcpower disks
ie: emcpowera as a result from the 1st loop.

What I would like to do is to compare what (emcpower\w+\d) partitions ie: 
emcpowera1 (seen from the output of
the 2nd for loop), where mounted against the available list of the 
(emcpower\w+) disk devices ie: emcpowera
(found in the 1st output) and then match on the (emcpower\w+) disk found (from 
1st output). The result of the
output of the matched partition found (2nd output) must concatenate to the 
result of the emcpower disk (1st output),
and then also show the (emcpower\w+) disks (from 1st output) that wasn't 
matched, if any.

In other words,

If emcpowera1 was found (from 2nd output), to match with emcpowera (from 1st 
output) and display the result
along with the mount point that was found for emxpowera1 like this:

   emcpowera sdbd sddg sdfj sdhm emcpowera1 /dwpdb006

If there are any (emcpower\w+) disks ie: emxpowerz that wasn't matched by a 
(emxpower\w+\d) partition ie: emxpowerz1,
to then only display normal output found in loop 1, because it doesn't have a 
matching partition ie:

    emcpowerz sdbg sddv sdfd sdht

If there are more than one (emcpower\w+\d) partition, to display the output for 
example like this:

    emcpowerbc      sdb sdbe sddh sdfk  emcpowerbc1 /s00_11
                                        emcpowerbc2 /utl_file_dir

So the end result from the above should for example display:

emcpowera   sdbd sddg sdfj sdhm  emcpowera1  /dwpdb006
emcpoweraa  sdae sdch sdek sdgn  emcpoweraa1 /dwpdb033
emcpowerbc  sdb sdbe sddh sdfk   emcpowerbc1 /s00_11
            sdba sddd sdfg sdhj  emcpowerbc2 /utl_file_dir
              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Why is this list

emcpowerc   sdbb sdde sdfh sdhk  emcpowerc1  /odsdb006
emcpowerd   sdba sddd sdfg sdhj  emcpowerd1  /odsdb005
              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
the same as this list?

emcpowerz   sdbg sddv sdfd sdht
