03 Jun 10
With the help of ssh i would like to execute script and redirect the output in my local file
$ssh -i keypair1.pem root@<host> -C sh /mnt/monitor.sh >> /root/imgManagementOutput.txt
source: monitor.sh
echo `cat /mnt/imageOutput.txt`
Source: /mnt/imageOutput.txt
line1
line2
Expected Output:
line1
line2
Actual Output:
line1 line2
I am looking for the output should be as "Expected Output" as it is not in a single line...

Why not just
#!/bin/sh
cat /mnt/imageOutput.txt
Why are you echoing the output of cat? (Which itself is basically "echoing" the text file?)

What happens if you don't redirect the output to a file? Does it look right then? What about if you log onto <host> and run /mnt/monitor.sh. Does it look right when you're not piping through ssh? Try and strip away as much as you can and you'll probably find where the problem lies.
