Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Echo print on same line while loop using variable Post 303040874 by vbe on Friday 8th of November 2019 05:25:22 AM

On what OS was your input file produced? Looks like MSsomething... and so I would not be surprised that "$d" contains next line char...
Try and put
Code:
-CapacityGB $d

at the end and see what happens...
So for testing new code:
Code:
 while IFS=" ," read a b c d; do
    echo "New-HardDisk -VM  $a  -DiskType Flat -Datastore $c -StorageFormat Thin -CapacityGB $d" >> script-file.txt
done < all-vm-final-2.txt

If that is the case, then pass your file through dos2unix type utility...

My 2 cents...
