Looking for a bit of help on an op script that will ping using a routing instance as the source of the ping. I get a lot of the script from here but I have yet to find how to include a routing-instance to source it from. Any help?

If you are not required to use an op script, you may get the same result using an RPM probe which allows you to ping based on a routing instance ... plus it gives you options for a lot of other features too... 

An example below:

yardiel@srx-14# show services rpm probe rm-srx-ge-0

probe rm-srx-ge-0 {
test if-ping-test {
probe-type icmp-ping-timestamp;
target address 10.10.10.2;
probe-count 15;
probe-interval 1;
test-interval 60;
routing-instance test-1;
}
}

Have you tried routing-instance tag?

ckim@wf-pacman-la> ping 10.13.110.1 routing-instance sysnet | display xml rpc 
<rpc-reply xmlns:junos="http://xml.juniper.net/junos/12.3R5/junos">
    <rpc>
        <ping>
                <routing-instance>sysnet</routing-instance>
                <host>10.13.110.1</host>
        </ping>
         </rpc>
        <cli>
            <banner></banner>
        </cli>
    </rpc-reply>

Thanks for that. I built a script, not getting any errors when it runs, but not getting any output either. Here's what I have so far:

/*
* op script for ping (host) from routing-instance
*
*/
version 1.0;

ns junos = "http://xml.juniper.net/junos/*/junos";
ns xnm = "http://xml.juniper.net/xnm/1.1/xnm";
ns jcs = "http://xml.juniper.net/junos/commit-scripts/1.0";

import "../import/junos.xsl";

match / {
<op-script-output> {
var $ping-target = "192.168.11";
var $ping-rpc = {
<ping> {
<count> "5";
<rapid>;
<host> $ping-target;
<routing-instance> "branch";
}
}
var $results = jcs:invoke($ping-rpc);

}
}

This was my test scrpt and result.

      <routing-instance> "sysnet";
        <host> $ping-target;
       }
    }
    var $results = jcs:invoke($ping-rpc);
 
    for-each($results/*){
      <output> name() _ ": " _ . ;
    }
  }
}

This works! I just have to clean up the output and all should be right as rain.
