output of watch several commands not clear












0















I am restoring a database backup on my server and i need to watch output of df -h and restore utility db2pd -utilities. I tried this:
watch -n 2 "db2pd -utilities && df -h

output(summarized):



    Every 2.0s: db2pd -utilities && df -h    

Database Member 0 -- Active -- Up 0 days 23:11:19

Utilities:
Address ID Type State Invoker Priority

0x000000E0 1 RESTORE 0 0 0


Progress:

actually the outputs are more and long I had to remove some parts and they combine together and become hard to read. what should i use to make space between them?

          All that's necessary is to add a printf statement between the original commands:
          watch -n 2 "db2pd -utilities && printf 'nnn' && df -h" You can use grep -v to hide any extraneous data from the individual utilities.
