Is there a way to view the log progress from multiple files.
For eg: I have 10 log files from 10 different instances. Instead of opening 10 terminal and doing tail -f on each, is it possible to view all the log changes in one tail -f?
Say I have file1,file2 .. file10
I have tried
No luck
This is showing only the first log progress.
Thanks in advance.

The system I work on, produces several kinds of status-files in a single directory. I would like to be able to see the files as they are added to this directory.
I was wondering if it would be possible to get a "tail -f" alike view of the ls-command, in such a way that a newly added file is... (4 Replies)
I have a log file which is continuously added to, called log.file. I'd like to
monitor this file, and when certain lines are found, update some totals in
another file. I've played around with tail -f, grep, and awk, but can't seem
to hit the right note, so to speak.
The lines I'm... (0 Replies)
Hi! I have a large set of pairs of text files (each pair in their own subdirectory) and each pair shares head/tail (a couple of first and last lines) but differs in the middle part. I need to delete the heads/tails and keep only the middle portions in which they differ. The lengths of heads/tails... (1 Reply)
Hi there, I'm trying to run a simple command in Solaris 10:
tail -10 *.log
But this gives me in the output just last 10 rows of a SINGLE log file :eek: (and there are many in active directory).
Please, do you have any idea what's the problem? :confused: Is it a Solaris issue?
Thank you in... (2 Replies)
Hi,
I'd like to process multiple files. For example:
file1.txt

Each file contains several lines of data. I want to extract a piece of data and output it to a new file.
file1.txt ----> newfile1.txt
file2.txt ----> newfile2.txt
file3.txt ----> newfile3.txt
Here is... (3 Replies)

However, I need to make sure that the file structure (number of fields separated by a comma) on the field is same for all the files of the same... (1 Reply)

xfs_logprint
xfs_logprint(8) System Manager's Manual xfs_logprint(8)NAME
xfs_logprint - print the log of an XFS filesystem
SYNOPSIS
xfs_logprint [ options ] device
DESCRIPTION
xfs_logprint prints the log of an XFS filesystem (see xfs(5)). The device argument is the pathname of the partition or logical volume con-
taining the filesystem. The device can be a regular file if the -f option is used. The contents of the filesystem remain undisturbed.
There are two major modes of operation in xfs_logprint.
One mode is better for filesystem operation debugging. It is called the transactional view and is enabled through the -t option. The
transactional view prints only the portion of the log that pertains to recovery. In other words, it prints out complete transactions
between the tail and the head. This view tries to display each transaction without regard to how they are split across log records.
The second mode starts printing out information from the beginning of the log. Some error blocks might print out in the beginning because
the last log record usually overlaps the oldest log record. A message is printed when the physical end of the log is reached and when the
logical end of the log is reached. A log record view is displayed one record at a time. Transactions that span log records may not be
decoded fully.
OPTIONS -b Extract and print buffer information. Only used in transactional view.
-c Attempt to continue when an error is detected.
-C filename
Copy the log from the filesystem to the file filename. The log itself is not printed.
-d Dump the log from front to end, printing where each log record is located on disk.
-D Do not decode anything; just print data.
-e Exit when an error is found in the log. Normally, xfs_logprint tries to continue and unwind from bad logs. However, sometimes it
just dies in bad ways. Using this option prevents core dumps.
-f Specifies that the filesystem image to be processed is stored in a regular file at device (see the mkfs.xfs(8)-d file option).
This might happen if an image copy of a filesystem has been made into an ordinary file with xfs_copy(8).
-l logdev
External log device. Only for those filesystems which use an external log.
-i Extract and print inode information. Only used in transactional view.
-q Extract and print quota information. Only used in transactional view.
-n Do not try and interpret log data; just interpret log header information.
-o Also print buffer data in hex. Normally, buffer data is just decoded, so better information can be printed.
-s start-block
Override any notion of where to start printing.
-t Print out the transactional view.
-v Print "overwrite" data.
-V Prints the version number and exits.
