How to get the record count in the while loop?

[Rick54]

Hello,

I am trying to get the count of all record that matches the query condition. When I use the below script, the count is always being '1' even though there are 1+ records that matches the condition. I am I missing anything? Please suggest.

var count = 0;
var gr= new GlideAggregate('cmdb_ci_db_mssql_instance');
gr.addAggregate('COUNT');
gr.addQuery('sys_id', 'IN', instances);//This variable holds 1 or more record sys ids
gr.addQuery('install_status',7);
gr.query();
while(gr.next()){
	instanceCount = gr.getAggregate('COUNT');
	gs.print(instanceCount);
	
}

This time I have 2 records that matched the condition
Output:
*** Script: 0
*** Script: 1
*** Script: 1
*** Script: 0

Expected Ouput: 2

My expectation is that these records are queried one after one that's the reason I am getting individual record's count. Is there any way to count all looped records and combine and output as 2? Thanks

here we go

var count=0;
var rcount;
var gr = new GlideRecord('cmdb_rel_ci');
gr.addQuery('child.sys_id','d53a14fddbd8330080e0a08a48961902');
gr.query();
if(gr.next())
{
gs.print(gr.parent.getDisplayValue());
var gr2 = new GlideRecord('cmdb_rel_ci');
gr2.addQuery('parent.sys_id',gr.parent);

gr2.query();
rcount=gr2.getRowCount();
while(gr2.next())
{
if(gr2.child.install_status== 7){
count++;
//gs.print(gr2.child.install_status);
}
}

}

if(rcount == count)
{

gs.print('hey harsh please update the database');

}
else
{
gs.print('no need to update the database');
}
