Hi, I have a question here. I am trying to invoke a command using my script. Please see the code below. 
$Src_Cmd = "srvrmgr – g $GATEWAY –e $ENTERPRISE_SERVER –s $USER –p $PA
+SSWD –c Run Task for comp $SYSTEM_NAME processName=\"UDA Batch  Deplo
+yment\", "RowId=$row_id";

#Subroutine to invoke the command

sub Command_exe
{
 ($COMMAND) = @_;
 print "Command to execute=$COMMAND\n";
 $ret = system($COMMAND);
 if($ret == 0) { print "command executed successfully\n"; return 0; }
 else { print "Command Failed\n";return 1; }

 return 0;        
}

#main-------

$ret = Command_exe("$Src_Cmd");        # invoke the command line.
print "ret code=$ret\n";

When i run this, it throws error. Do i need to write like this: 
$Src_Cmd = "srvrmgr","– g","$GATEWAY","–e","$ENTERPRISE_SERVER","–s","
+$USER","–p","$PASSWD","–c",Run Task for comp $SYSTEM_NAME processName
+=\"UDA Batch  Deployment\", "RowId=$row_id";
