[Solved]Using the output of bdf in script

Hello all,

First I have an old HP-UX box(11.21) for which I need to implement file-system utilization monitoring. I choosed to use bdf and a simple for loop. However sometimes the output of bdf is as this one(this is actually form linux but the idea is the same)


Code:
Filesystem               Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/vg00-rootlv  9.3G  923M  8.2G  11% /
udev                     2.5G   12K  2.5G   1% /dev
tmpfs                    995M  528K  995M   1% /run
none                     5.0M     0  5.0M   0% /run/lock
none                     2.5G     0  2.5G   0% /run/shm
/dev/mapper/vg00-tmplv   950M   30M  920M   4% /tmp
/dev/mapper/vg00-varlv
                         4.7G  615M  4.1G  13% /var
BLABLA:BLAA              950M   30M  920M   4% /home2

My question is how can I extract only the value of Use%?

The loop is something like:

Code:
usep="output from bdf"
if [ $usep -ge 90 ]
then 
echo "Fs full"
fi

I tried awk print but since we have an line with one column less this didn`t work, I have also tried cut but I cannot find universal enough delimiter as the device might be named /dev/vx/ for example or HOST:SHARE.

Any help will be greatly appreciated since I am banging my head with this almost 3h.

p.s. The power of perl is also welcome Smilie

bdfresize [-v] [-b number] [-[whf] factor] [bdf-file] DESCRIPTION
Bdfresize is a command to magnify or reduce fonts which are described with the standard BDF format. If bdf-file is not specified, it reads from stdin.

Other lines are copied from source. If a syntax error occurs in a source font, bdfresize notices it and stops the whole process. OPTIONS

Default is 4. -w factor Specify the resize factor for the font width. -h factor Specify the resize factor for the font height. -f factor Same as ``-w factor -h factor''. factor is described in either of following forms. <digits> <digits>/<digits> SEE ALSO
