Script not executing properly

Question

On a Juniper router, need to drop down into the shell to execute a command to get some extra low-level grep commands.

NCM doesnt seem to want to do anything with it and fails to execute the command.

Any ideas on what I am doing wrong, or how to help this along?

start shell

${Delay:2}

cli -c "show ethernet-switching table interface all|match xe-" | egrep -v database | awk '{print $2 " " $4}'

Email I get shows:

when you log into in the shell it changes the prompt to % which is seen above.Using tht link you sent, I am not sure how to read the instructions on that. Add below line (command) to the template: So the value instead of # becomes a % and then execute my command? so like this? cli -c "show ethernet-switching table interface all|match xe-" | egrep -v database | awk '{print $2 " " $4}' looks like i got an error back in the email. % Missing name for redirect. % %

Off the top of my head, when you change the shell does the prompt change?  You can modify device templates to recognize a different prompt like so
