Hi,
Just thought I would bring this little nugget to the community.
We are running R81.10 with JHFA45 on VSX. We have a number of VS's that have a large number of logical interface i.e. more then 200!
When running 'ifconfig -a' on the CLI for a specific VS we experienced the below error:
# ifconfig -a
/bin/cp-ifconfig.sh: line 179: /bin/echo: Argument list too long
Raised a TAC case and the following solution was provided.
- backup /usr/bin/cp-ifconfig.sh
- vi /usr/bin/cp-ifconfig.sh and then find 'function print'
See below:
function print_output(){
/bin/echo -e "$script_output"
}
- replace the above with:
function print_output(){
while [[ $script_output ]]; do
if [[ $script_output = *'\n'* ]]; then
line=${script_output%%'\n'*}
rest=${script_output#*'\n'}
else
line=$script_output
rest=''
fi
/bin/echo -e "$line"
script_output=$rest
done
}
- save the file and then the issue should be resolved.
I've requested this resolution is integrated into a jumbo take. The fix id related to this is : PRJ-40034.
- Thanks TAC!
