CentOS 6.

# lsb_release -d

CentOS is supposed to be fully compatible with RHEL. This is not a matter of
RHEL vs. others, it'a a matter of poor coding. E.g. from
Diagnostics_Application_298ND_LN64_2.0_A00-2.0-16.08.00.noarch.rpm,
Diagnostics_Application_298ND_LN64_2.0_A00.BIN :
getPSCommand()
{
_ESXiSYSTEM=$(checkIfESXi)
if [ $_ESXiSYSTEM = 0 ]; then
echo "ps"
else
echo "ps -e"
fi
}
$_ESXiSYSTEM needs to be quoted. Trivial error, trivial fix. There are many
more instances.
