EEM scripting help

I'm trying to have EEM script where I run the script manually and it display the output of the results in the session but for some reason I'm unable to do so. This is what I have so far


(config)#event manager applet TestCommand
(config-applet)# event none 
(config-applet)# action 1.0 cli command "show version"
(config-applet)# action 2.0 puts "$_cli_result"
(config-applet)#end

 

When I do "event manager run TestCommand" it shows a blank output with no results.

i found my solution for this, i had to put single quotations around $_cli_result to get this to work

event manager applet TestCommand
event none
action 1.0 cli command "enable"
action 2.0 cli command "show version"
action 3.0 puts '$_cli_result'

Hello,

it looks like you need to add the 'enable' command:

(config)#event manager applet TestCommand
(config-applet)# event none
(config-applet)# action 1.0 cli command "enable"
(config-applet)# action 2.0 cli command "show version"
(config-applet)# action 3.0 puts "$_cli_result"
(config-applet)#end

I'm not sure why the $_cli_result command doesnt show

this is what I entered



 

 

Friend the correct command in yellow'

You need to config 

Puts $_cli_result

Without any " inbetween

Check yellow command I share

MHM

sorry, are you asking to have it be like:

event manager applet TestCommand
event none
action 1.0 cli command "enable"
action 2.0 cli command "show version"
action 3.0 puts $_cli_result


the action 3.0 line would get me a incomplete command

it work in my lab 

do space between word puts and $_cli_result

MHM

yep, I have a space in between puts and the $_cli_result, I'm not sure why its being considered a incomplete command

Ok' 

Use new event manager with new name 

And use "" for puts command 

And check result when you run it manually 

MHM

this is what I've entered

Hello,

odd indeed. I would delete all EEM scripts, reboot the router, and enter the script again...
