Creating an add-on script

To create an add-on script:
1. Add-on Scripts names should be in the defined format. The file name of the script should strictly
follow this format <release Number>_<add-on_script_name>.sh.
When you provide the release number in the file name, remove the period between the first
and second digit of the version number.
For example, assume you obtained the version number from the ibrix_version -l
command.
The output of the command displays the version number.
[root@host2 /]# ibrix_version -l
Fusion Manager version: 6.3.33

HOST_NAME FILE_SYSTEM IAD/IAS IAD/FS OS KERNEL_VERSION ARCH
------—- --------------------------------- ------- ------ ---------
-------------- ----
host2 6.3.33(internal rev 132818 in SVN) 6.3.33 6.3.33 GNU/Linux
2.6.18-194.el5 x86_64
In this example, the version displayed is 6.3.33. Use the first two digit of the version number,
6.3 for example, as a prefix to "Add-on Script File Name" without "." (Dot), so that the name
of an add-on script named AddOnTest.sh would be 63_AddOnTest.sh.
IMPORTANT:
you plan to run the script. For example, any add-on script that you want to run on StoreAll
version 6.3, must have 63_ in its file name; otherwise, the script will not run. For example, if
you prefix the name with another version, such as 6.2_, and you attempt to run the add-on
script on StoreAll 6.3, the script will not run.
2. Place the added-on script in the following directory:
/usr/local/ibrix/ibrixcollect/ibrix_collect_add_on_scripts/
The following example shows several add-on scripts stored in the
ibrix_collect_add_on_scripts directory:
root@host2 /]# ls -l
/usr/local/ibrix/ibrixcollect/ibrix_collect_add_on_scripts/

-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 48 Dec 20 09:22 63_AddOnTest.sh
The version provided in the name must match the version of StoreAll on which
