problem with if and else

[Marcel1958]

I wrote the an script to check the file systems.


df -k | tr -d "%" | grep dev |
while read filesystem blocks free gebruik A1 iused mounted

do


if

[ "$gebruik" -gt "50" ] && [ "$mounted" = "/var/psf" ] |
[ "$gebruik" -gt "90" ] && [ "$mounted" = "/var/psf/segments" ]
then
MESSAGE="$filesystem is $gebruik % full and mounted on $mounted"
echo $MESSAGE


else

if
[ "$gebruik" -gt "60" ]
then
MESSAGE="$filesystem is xx $gebruik % full and mounted on $mounted"
echo $MESSAGE
fi
fi


done



The result of this is:

/dev/hd2 is xx 62 % full and mounted on /usr
/dev/hd9var is xx 66 % full and mounted on /var
/dev/lvpd is xx 66 % full and mounted on /var/pd
/dev/lvpsf is xx 89 % full and mounted on /var/psf
/dev/lvpsfs is xx 85 % full and mounted on /var/psf/segments



Why do ik get the line
/dev/lvpsf is xx 89 % full and mounted on /var/psf
while i excluded it in the if statement:

Because 89 -gt 90 is false.

Hope This Helps, PH.

Indeed. But why get i the line

/dev/lvpsfs is xx 85 % full and mounted on /var/psf/segments

 

[PHV]

Because:
[ "$gebruik" -gt "50" ] && [ "$mounted" = "/var/psf" ] is false
[ "$gebruik" -gt "90" ] && [ "$mounted" = "/var/psf/segments" ] is false
[ "$gebruik" -gt "60" ] is true

Hope This Helps, PH.

Thanks PHV, but i get the message from the else statement :
/dev/lvpsf is xx 89 % full and mounted on /var/psf

while
[ "$gebruik" -gt "50" ] && [ "$mounted" = "/var/psf" ]
is true in the if statement

 

[PHV]

Can you please repost the script as I'm not sure about the higlighted stuff below:
[ "$gebruik" -gt "50" ] && [ "$mounted" = "/var/psf" ][highlight] | [/highlight]

[ "$gebruik" -gt "50" ] && [ "$mounted" = "/var/psf" ] |
[ "$gebruik" -gt "90" ] && [ "$mounted" = "/var/psf/segments" ]

I think what you want here is:

     ([ "$gebruik" -gt "50" ] && [ "$mounted" = "/var/psf" ]) ||
     ([ "$gebruik" -gt "90" ] && [ "$mounted" = "/var/psf/segments" ])

A single | is a pipe, || indicates "or". The parentheses make sure that it's the two "and" clauses that are or'ed.
