Hi..

I have the unix app installed in one of my linux server , and they are several mount points on this box , out of my user (i.e splunk) user have access only to limited mount points .So the problem here since i dont have access to all mountpoints my unix's app command df.sh is throwing permission denied error as below.

index=_internal " error " NOT debug source=splunkd.log message="message from \"/opt/splunk/etc/apps/unix/bin/df.sh\" df: `/clusmon/bptm_logs': Permission denied

How can i eliminate this error ? is there a way when an unix app runs df.sh script it takes only from the accessible mount points and doesnt throw any error if some mount point is not accessible ?..
