Hi all,

i am trying to use below command to see the output of hardware inventory, but i only see 2 first line no output of the command.

awk '/Hardware/ {print $0}' XXX_result.txt 
Hardware inventory:
Hardware inventory:

Can you please post the content of XXX_result.txt and also post the desired output you want from this file?

There is maybe nothing more...

your question is not clear, r u trying to to search string hardware in given input file XXX_result.txt ? or just want to display everything in file XXX_result.txt
?

i like to see output under hardware inventory which is like below...but you can see it only shows Hardware inventory line and thats it!

Jared, please post your data samples in code tags.
By the way I don't see string: Hardware anywhere in the data sample you posted. So if you search for string: Hardware using awk, it will print only that particular line.

so can you tell me if this is even posisble how to see line below hardware uisng awk?
