Full Discussion: Command in inside awk statement

Just saying it isn't working isn't exactly helpful.

If the output of bppllist -byclient client1, 2, 3, 4, etc. is:
Code:
policy1
policy2
policy3
policy4
...

Then the following command (to simulate the next step) gives the shown output:
Code:
for i in $( cat clients_list) 
do   
  echo CLASS policyN $i | awk -v i=$i '/^CLASS/{system("echo bpplclients " $2 " -delete " i)}' 
done

Code:
bpplclients policyN -delete client1
bpplclients policyN -delete client2
bpplclients policyN -delete client3
bpplclients policyN -delete client4

So:
Code:
for i in $( cat clients_list) 
do   
  bppllist -byclient $i | awk -v i=$i '/^CLASS/{system("bpplclients " $2 " -delete " i)}' 
done

should execute:
Code:
bpplclients policy1 -delete client1
bpplclients policy2 -delete client2
bpplclients policy3 -delete client3
bpplclients policy4 -delete client4
