Hi inifinitydon,

I do not understand 1) . There should be no sorting and the output order of gsh list_grad should be preserved

2) what error do you mean? numbers in the last that do not exist in the numbers file?. What do you want to do with those?

Code:
gsh list_gras | awk 'NR==FNR{numbers[$1];next} $NF in numbers' "$1" -

But call the script as:
Code:
./rac_huawei_script.sh huawei_bscs

About learning this stuff, I like this O'Reilly book:
sed & awk, 2nd Edition-O'Reilly Media

There is also a solid on-line tutorial:
Awk - A Tutorial and Introduction - by Bruce Barnett

Other ingredients are practice and hanging out on these forums Smilie
