Question Extract portion of log info based on specific word
Hi Gurus,

I'm using HP-UX B.11.23 operating system.

I've been trying to extract a specific wording for example: "A tool used by tp produced warnings" from my below log data, but could not find a way to solve it. My intention is, if the log contain the word: "A tool used by tp produced warnings", the script will extract all the relevant information for this message.

For example:
A tool used by tp produced warnings

Output:
