Yes it's line 162 because this script is a part af a bigger one.

so it's the line while [ $i -le "${fancount}" ]; do

I already test with a correct space caracter but i get the same error,
I guess the problem is $(fancount), i think oid_fan_count=".1.3.6.1.4.1.1211.1.15.4.5.0" is simply the wrong OID so $(fancount) stays empty nad create the error.

i've to check the SNMP configuration of my host, it must be wrong
