How can I list only modules which need an update? Drush 8.1.9 &amp; Drupal 7.53.
What I'm looking for is a command like drush ups but without all the modules that are [OK] – so when used with an alias of several sites I don't have to scroll through loads. So all I get is:
aliasname     
Name                               Installed Version  Proposed version  Message          
     Metatag (metatag)                  7.x-1.19           7.x-1.20          Update available 
     Views Slideshow (views_slideshow)  7.x-3.4            7.x-3.5           Update available 

I found drush vset update_check_disabled 1 -y &amp;&amp; drush -n -p up – it works but here's a sample output, which is not what I want.
media_ckeditormedia_ckeditormedia_ckeditor
views_slideshowmedia_ckeditor

I also want the version info. Is there anything I can do to get a list of all modules which need an update including the version info?
Drush puts that [ok] information out on stderr. So you can actually just dump that by using:

drush ups 2&gt;/dev/null


which for me gave:

 $ drush ups 2&gt;/dev/null
