I need to do the following within a bigfix action script. Can this be done?
cd /etc/rc3.d
for x in ls -1 S*| cut -c4-99
do
chkconfig $x off
chkconfig $x on
done
It creates a listing of files in /etc/rc.3, stripping the first 3 characters, then runs chkconfig off, followed by chkconfig on for each of them

Is that all you need to run in the Action? If yes, then all you need to do is run it verbatim in the Action, just pick the “sh” entry from the Action Script Type pop-up menu.

This is just one of a few items that will be in the action script.
The other items are also linux commands run with “wait sh …”

Write out the script to a file with “appendfile” and execute it using “waithidden”, perhaps? Otherwise you will need Relevance that replicates the functions of script and that will require constructive thought* to write given that your shell script has a “for loop” in it.
