Using script to collect Data

[Franck999]

Hi,

I would like to use the new script feature to collect a metric.

I see that the script should return a value like key:value

This is my script :

#!/bin/bash

val=$(netstat -ntaupe |grep httpd | grep ESTABLISHED | wc -l)

echo "res=$val"

The script return some result like :

res=18

But the return result value metric in my script object is always 0

I see that script is executed , but tha's all.

Something I have missed here ?

Got an answer, it's only because netstat need to be root and scripts are executes as epops user.

That's all
