I have seen the link referencing the awk or nawk but not sure how it's using either?

AIs the only reference in the file to awk is the following?

cat bb-prtdiag.sh | grep awk

You may also need to use /usr/xpg4/bin/awk or

/usr/bin/nawk

Am I being stupid here?

No. That is what I get for not having clear instructions.

And when is the next version coming out? Is it planned or only when needed?

As needed basis.

Next version will have this in it:

Step 2 - Add the lines mentioned in the bbsys.local section to

$HOBBITCLIENT/etc/hobbitclient.cfg

Note: You may have to hard code the

PLATFORM_SPEC & PRTDIAG_COMMAND variables, or

do not enter it in hobbitclient.cfg

You may also need to use /usr/xpg4/bin/awk or /usr/bin/nawk

e.g. edit hobbitclient.cfg

Replace AWK="/usr/bin/awk"

with

AWK="/usr/bin/nawk"
