Pulling correct value from Mapfile

MrKen · #1 (**permalink**) 07-03-2009

Hi all,

I am trying to pull one value from a Mapfile, but the result is that I am getting all the values. The Mapfile maps the host name from the Backup Server to the host name in our Network Monitoring Server, as shown here:

Mapfile

Code:

cat zabbixhosts 
Helpdesk-fd:Server_Helpdesk
Knowledge-fd:Server_Knowledge
BaculaServer-fd:Server_Bacula
Zabbix-fd:Server_Zabbix_1.4.2

The section of script that is failing is here:

Code:

client=$(tail -n 38 /var/lib/bacula/log | grep -m 1 -F "Client" | awk -F" " '{ print $2; }')
echo Client is $client
echo

# get hostname from the Hostsfile
ZABBIX_HOST=`grep "[$client]" $ZABBIX_HOSTSFILE`

if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
        hostname=`echo "$ZABBIX_HOST" | cut -f2 -d:`
else
        hostname=""
fi
echo Hostname is $hostname

When I run that script the output is as follows:

Code:

./bacula2zabbix.sh 
Client is "BaculaServer-fd"

Hostname is Server_Helpdesk Server_Knowledge Server_Bacula Server_Zabbix_1.4.2

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
