Hello all. I am new to this forum and also very new to using grep - so please excuse me if this question is not in the correct forum and/or is not pertinent to this website.
I use greps like this:
These logs are updating continuosly throughout the day. SailLogger_20071019* is the name of log followed by YYYYMMDD. I use the wildcard to target all the logs (the logs themselves are renamed at the top of each hour - eg 2007101907 (for 7am) and 2007101908 (for 9am).
When I run this grep, it will only extract from the first log in the statement - System1. I then get an error message related to not being able to find the end of the file.
Is there a way to grep all these logs ?
Thanks you for any help and guidance.
Regards.

zgrep
ZGREP(1) General Commands Manual ZGREP(1)NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression
SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename...
DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code:
(-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the
standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep.
If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked.
EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified.
