Script not working as expected
Hi,

I have prepared a script and trying to execute it but not getting expected output. Could you please help and advise what is going wrong.
"If else" part in below script is not working basically.
I am running it on HP-UX.
Code:
for i in slpd puma sfmdb
do
echo "******\t$i\t*******"
echo "--------------"
if {"$i"=="puma"}; then
ps -ef|grep -i $i|grep -v grep |head -1|awk -F ' '  '{print "Username: "$1 "\nPID: "$2 "\tProcessname:"  $9}';ps -ef|grep puma|grep -v grep|sed -n '2,$p' |awk -F ' '  '{print "Username: "$1 "\nPID: "$2 "\tProcessname:"  $8}'
else
ps -ef|grep -i $i|grep -v grep |awk 'BEGIN {print "Username\tPID\t\tProcessname";}
{print $1,"\t\t",$2,"\t\t",$9;}
END{print "Report Generated\n--------------";}' 
fi
done

What is the output of your script? What is expected output?

To get rid of the error try :
Code:
if [ "$i" = "puma" ] ; then

and here better use a double quote for sed instead of the single:
Code:
ps -ef|grep puma|grep -v grep|sed -n '2,$p' |awk -F ' '  '{print "Username: "$1 "\nPID: "$2 "\tProcessname:"  $8}'
