(1) needs backticks --- character under ~ (tilde) on your keyboard ...
Code:
#!/bin/ksh

DFR=`df -g filesystempath|grep filesystem|awk '{print $4}'`

echo $DFR
(2) needs to be properly formatted ... and use backticks ... and use right test syntax ...
Code:
#!/bin/ksh

DFR=`df -g filesystempath|grep filesystem|awk '{print $4}'`

if [ $DFR -gt 90 ] 
then 
    echo "True" 
else 
    echo "False" 
fi 
#checking if its greater than 90%

Thanks

It was the backticks

Proper Script:
#!/bin/ksh //correct

DFR=`df -g /dev/devetl_lv|grep devetl_lv|awk '{print $4}'|sed 's/\%//'`
//correct

if [ $DFR -gt 90 ] then echo "True" else echo "False" fi
//wrong.....it says 0403-057 Syntax error at line 6 : `then' is not matched.

Please let me know whats wrong. I did try with ';' after the expression [..], but didnt help
