Except for the strange field 1 header in your output, the following awk script seems to produce the output you requested:
Code:
awk -F ' : ' '
NF == 2 {
	if(h < 7)
		printf("%s%s", $1, (++h == 7) ? ORS : OFS)
	o = f++ ? (o OFS $2) : $2
	if(f == 7) {
		print o
		o = ""
		f = 0
	}
}' OFS='|' file

which prints:
Code:
Filename|Data Format|Compression|GZIP Bytes|Unzipped Bytes|Records|Record Length
SW_PP_CTRL_20170505.txt.gz|ASCII with carriage returns and linefeeds|GZIP|2019064|11413730|95788|157
SW_PP_DATA_20170505.txt.gz|ASCII with carriage returns and linefeeds|GZIP|691778058|8316153069|60400481|158
SW_PP_DEMO_20170505.txt.gz|ASCII with carriage returns and linefeeds|GZIP|26240709|77053000|543250|227
SW_PP_PLANXREF_20170505.txt.gz|ASCII with carriage returns and linefeeds|GZIP|557904|3061930|16262|310
SW_PP_PRODUCT_20170505.txt.gz|ASCII with carriage returns and linefeeds|GZIP|21375|229431|1264|211
SW_PP_REASSIGN_20170505.txt.gz|ASCII with carriage returns and linefeeds|GZIP|32681|69399|802|130

This could have been done much more simply with:
Code:
awk -F ' : |\n' '
NF == 14 {
	if(!h) {h = 1
		print $1, $3, $5, $7, $9, $11, $13
	}
	print $2, $4, $6, $8, $10, $12, $14
}' OFS='|' RS='' file2

if the blank lines in your input file had been empty lines instead (i.e., no <space> characters on the blank lines between records).

If you want to try either of these on a Solaris/SunOS system, change awk to nawk or /usr/xpg4/bin/awk.

service

service(8)						      System Manager's Manual							service(8)

NAME

       service - run a System V init script

SYNOPSIS

       service SCRIPT COMMAND [OPTIONS]

       service --status-all

       service --help | -h | --version

DESCRIPTION

       service runs a System V init script in as predictable environment as possible, removing most environment variables and with current working
       directory set to /.

       The SCRIPT parameter specifies a System V init script, located in /etc/init.d/SCRIPT.  The  supported  values  of  COMMAND  depend  on  the
       invoked	script,  service  passes  COMMAND and OPTIONS it to the init script unmodified.  All scripts should support at least the start and
       stop commands.  As a special case, if COMMAND is --full-restart, the script is run twice, first with the stop command, then with the  start
       command.

       service --status-all runs all init scripts, in alphabetical order, with the status command.

EXIT CODES

       service calls the init script and returns the status returned by it.

FILES

       /etc/init.d
	      The directory containing System V init scripts.

ENVIRONMENT

       LANG, TERM
	      The only environment variables passed to the init scripts.

SEE ALSO

       /etc/init.d/skeleton,
       update-rc.d(8),
       init(8),
       invoke-rc.d(8).
