Thanks to all for the solution.
-A, B, C options are not supported.
Using HP-UX 11.11
Now, can i print just the previous line and the matching line?
cat replace_all* | sed -n -e 'N;/Failure/p;'
prints the previous line only for the first match, thereafter only matching lines are printed and not their previous lines.
Thanks,

HISTORY
The GNU shtool subst command was originally written by Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com> in 2001 for GNU shtool. It was prompted
by the need to have a uniform and convenient patching frontend to sed(1) operations in the OpenPKG package specifications.
