Thanks for replying, but did not work - regular expression compile failed (bad class -- [],[^] or [)
Looks like the [ in front of the work backup... but...
Here is the exact data in the file that I need to grep:
123 full 129234532 123234122 1297 2123121 1231211 123121 rsync 0 0
124 incr 129232342 129452323 1232 2342322 1123232 112312 rsync 0 0
I need to know the data in front of the word FULL... that is the directory name that I need to cp or tar...
Thanks for replying...

After some research I believe I got it!!
awk '/full/ { print $1 } ' myfile
this finds the word full, then prints out the first column in the file, which happens to be the directory name in my case....
Now to pipe this output to a tar command to look for that directory name... done.

procsystime
procsystime(1m) USER COMMANDS procsystime(1m)
NAME
procsystime - analyse system call times. Uses DTrace.
SYNOPSIS
procsystime [-acehoT] [ -p PID | -n name | command ]
DESCRIPTION
procsystime prints details on system call times for processes, both the elapsed times and on-cpu times can be printed.
The elapsed times are interesting, to help identify syscalls that take some time to complete (during which the process may have slept). CPU
time helps us identify syscalls that are consuming CPU cycles to run.
Since this uses DTrace, only users with root privileges can run this command.
OPTIONS
-a print all data
-c print syscall counts
-e print elapsed times, ns
-o print CPU times, ns
-T print totals
-p PID examine this PID
-n name
examine processes which have this name
EXAMPLES
Print elapsed times for PID 1871,
# procsystime -p 1871
Print elapsed times for processes called "tar",
# procsystime -n tar
Print CPU times for "tar" processes,
# procsystime -on tar
Print syscall counts for "tar" processes,
# procsystime -cn tar
Print elapsed and CPU times for "tar" processes,
# procsystime -eon tar
print all details for "bash" processes,
# procsystime -aTn bash
run and print details for "df -h",
# procsystime df -h
FIELDS
SYSCALL
System call name
TIME (ns)
Total time, nanoseconds
COUNT Number of occurrences
DOCUMENTATION
See the DTraceToolkit for further documentation under the Docs directory. The DTraceToolkit docs may include full worked examples with ver-
bose descriptions explaining the output.
EXIT
procsystime will sample until Ctrl-C is hit.
