I am trying to run a shellcommand that includes a call to awk. Awk requires the use of braces but CFE treats tham as variable substitutuions. I have tried escaping them with \ with no success. I've tried using single quotes and double quotes.
Here is a sample:
"/bin/ps axo \"stime,pid,command\" | /bin/awk ' {print $2 ;} ' "
The error returned is:
Incomplete variable syntax or bracket mismatch
Does anyone know how to pull this off? I don't want to deploy a one line shell script to all my clients.
Thanks!
Josh
