AWK error
This is my disk space on solaris box and i wrote a simple script which identifies mount points which crosses 90% or above.
But the AWK part is throwing some error and im unable to debug..
HTML Code:
mzaheer @ UAT  144 % => df -k
Filesystem            kbytes    used   avail capacity  Mounted on
/dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0    4127845   91608 3994959     3%    /

Quote:
#! /usr/bin/ksh
Threshold1=90
df -k | awk -v var="$Threshold1"' int($5) >= var {print "MountPoint:"$6" ""Total Space(kb) is:"$2" ""Free Space(kb) is:"$4}'
if test $? -eq 0 ; then
echo "DISK SPACE HAS REACHED 90%"
the desired output will be like this..
MountPoint: /var Total Space(kb) is: 4127845 Free Space(kb) is: 1235036

Tools Hard to tell by your spacing, but...
change
Code:
var="$Threshold1"' int($5)

to
Code:
var="$Threshold1" 'int($5)

essentially, making sure a space after the var assisgnment and before your awk instructions.

Question Let's rule some things out then...
Code:
df -k | awk -v var="$Threshold1" 'int($5) >= var {print $0}'

Does the stripped-down code work? Or, the following REALLY SIMPLIFIED CODE?

Code:
df -k | awk 'int($5) >= 90 {print $0}'
