Hello manohar2013,

You need to basically use $VAR(just an example) in shell to get the values of variables. Following may help you in same.
Code:
cat var_pass.ksh
username1=userid
poihostname1=dellsys.com
port1=8080
RESULT1=$((ssh -n $username1@$poihostname1 time /usr/sfw/bin/wget  --user=sam --password=123 -O /dev/null -q http://$poihostname1:$port1 ;) 2>/dev/null || echo "Not Running")

Above is just an example, you can use it as per your requirement.


Thanks,

Hello Manohar2013,

I just created script named var_pass.ksh and put commands in it. So you need to create a script if you need named var_pass.ksh or you can simply run the commands itself.
on command line without script.
Code:
 username1=userid
poihostname1=dellsys.com
port1=8080
 RESULT1=$((ssh -n $username1@$poihostname1 time /usr/sfw/bin/wget  --user=sam --password=123 -O /dev/null -q http://$poihostname1:$port1 ;) 2>/dev/null || echo "Not Running")

Thanks,
R. Singh
