The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Use awk with if

Asked by Aludaan in HP-UX Unix, Bourne Shell (sh)

Tags: HP, HPUX, 11.11, AWK

When I run:
sudo opcdeploy -cmd winosspi_windiag -par "/drives /nonwdrives" -node dmr-fs-01 | grep ':\\\\'
in my script I get the following output:
c:\ FIXED NTFS 17249.45 MB 6792.10 MB
e:\ Data FIXED NTFS 60416.29 MB 1682.69 MB
f:\ Mirror FIXED NTFS 60416.29 MB 5360.89 MB
What I would like to do is get column 5 and 7, but the problem is if the drive isn't named it becomes 4 and 6. So I was going to do a awk if statement but I am clearly doing something wrong. The problem occurs on 2 fronts.

1) In the for loop it returns every individual word as a seperate loop.
2a) If I put quotations around the command then all 3 lines come in at one time
2b) When this happens, I would expect the if statement to return the correct output for c:\ because that one would still line up properly, but it does not which tells me I have an error in my if statement too.

What I would like to be able to end up with from the output above is:
DriveLetter="c:\" DriveTotal=17249.45 DriveRemaining=6792.10 (do my output based on these 3, then loop for the next 2 and repeat the process)
DriveLetter="e:\" DriveTotal=60416.29 DriveRemaining=1682.69
DriveLetter="f:\" DriveTotal=60416.29 DriveRemaining=5360.89Start Free Trial

         
             for test in `sudo opcdeploy -cmd winosspi_windiag -par "/drives /nonwdrives" -node dmr-fs-01 | grep ':\\\\'|awk -F\n '{ print $1 }'`
do
        echo $test
        DriveLetter=`echo $test | awk {' print $1 '}`
        DriveTotal=`echo $test | awk '{ if ( $5 == "MB" ) { print "No name" } else print "Named" }'`
        echo $DriverLetter
        echo $DriveTotal
done
