UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

Hi guys,

I'm new to unix. I'm creating a small script which should fetch the server space details from different servers and it as a mail.

Right now my script is working perfectly. But i have a problem in deploying it.

I'm using the command ssh user@host 'df -h /app/directory'

We are using a server which requires sudo su. If i do sudo, my script is not working.
My TECTIA is using my Smartcard credentials initially.

These are the Options i have but not sure how to proceed here.
Option 1: I should be able to run the script using the sudo account id.
Option 2: My script should do "exit" from sudo account and run. (which is not recommended)

Please help me on this.

Thanks,
Santhosh
