So I have a log that contains something like this:
What I want is to get the first occurrence of "^localhost0" (at line start) and then everything else up to the last occurrence of "^localhost0" (at line start)
Ideally I don't even care about the 2 "localhost0" lines either. All I really... (6 Replies)
Good Day,
Im new to scripting especially awk and sed. I just would like to ask help from you guys about a sed command that prints the line immediately after a regexp, but not the line containing the regexp.
sed -n '/regexp/{n;p;}' filename
What if my regexp is 3 word or a sentence. Im... (3 Replies)
I have successfully used regexp and sed to insert a newline before or after a line containing a matched pattern /WORD/. However, I want to insert a newline immediately following /WORD/ and not after the -line- containing the pattern matched. I can match a pattern, but it is matched via a wild card... (2 Replies)
Greetings all,
...here is yet another string of awk/sed questions from a RegExp-Challenged luser :eek:
I'm looking to have sed/awk do some clean-up on routing tables and to that end, I would like to do the following:
1.) If a line contains the word "masks" or "subnets" prepend CR/LF to... (16 Replies)
Hi,
I searched in the forums, but I didn't find a good solution. My problem is:
I have a string like "TEST.ABC201005.MONTHLY.D101010203".
I just want to have the string until the D100430, so that the string should look like: "TEST.ABC201005.MONTHLY.D"
The last characters after the D can be... (8 Replies)
Hi,
I'm curious about how to do a very simple thing with regular expressions that I'm unable to figure out.
If I want to find out if a string contains 'a' AND 'b' AND 'c' it can be very easily done with grep:
echo $STRING|grep a|grep b|grep c
but, how would you do that in a single... (9 Replies)
I need help with a regexp to find out the ip address which can possibly be present in a URL.
The URLs can be in any of the following form
<domain>?a=12345&d=somestring1
<domain>?c=10.10.10.100&d=somestring1
<domain>?a=12345&b=somestring1&c=10.1.2.4d=somestring2... (3 Replies)
I'm probably just not thinking of the correct term to search for :-) But I want to match a pattern that might be 'ABC' or '1ABC' there might be three characters, or there might be four, but if there are four, the first has to be 1 (1 Reply)
I'm looking for a way to print the 4th line back from a regular expression. Kind of like the below but it has to be the 4th line before the regexp.
Print the line immediately before regexp, but not the line containing the regexp.
sed -n '/regexp/{g;1!p;};h'
here is an example of logs(i... (11 Replies)

bup-margin
bup-margin(1) General Commands Manual bup-margin(1)NAME
bup-margin - figure out your deduplication safety margin
SYNOPSIS
bup margin [options...]
DESCRIPTION
bup margin iterates through all objects in your bup repository, calculating the largest number of prefix bits shared between any two
entries. This number, n, identifies the longest subset of SHA-1 you could use and still encounter a collision between your object ids.
For example, one system that was tested had a collection of 11 million objects (70 GB), and bup margin returned 45. That means a 46-bit
hash would be sufficient to avoid all collisions among that set of objects; each object in that repository could be uniquely identified by
its first 46 bits.
The number of bits needed seems to increase by about 1 or 2 for every doubling of the number of objects. Since SHA-1 hashes have 160 bits,
that leaves 115 bits of margin. Of course, because SHA-1 hashes are essentially random, it's theoretically possible to use many more bits
with far fewer objects.
If you're paranoid about the possibility of SHA-1 collisions, you can monitor your repository by running bup margin occasionally to see if
you're getting dangerously close to 160 bits.
OPTIONS --predict
Guess the offset into each index file where a particular object will appear, and report the maximum deviation of the correct answer
from the guess. This is potentially useful for tuning an interpolation search algorithm.
--ignore-midx
don't use .midx files, use only .idx files. This is only really useful when used with --predict.
EXAMPLE
$ bup margin
Reading indexes: 100.00% (1612581/1612581), done.
40
40 matching prefix bits
1.94 bits per doubling
120 bits (61.86 doublings) remaining
4.19338e+18 times larger is possible
Everyone on earth could have 625878182 data sets
like yours, all in one repository, and we would
expect 1 object collision.
$ bup margin --predict
