/BASEDIR:/ {
    gsub(/(^ *BASEDIR: *)|( *$)/, "")
    print
}'

Note that you can't have a comma in a field in a comma separated file unless the fields that contain commas in the data are quoted. This script quotes the NAME and VERSION fields since it seems doubtful that the hostname and BASEDIR fields will ever contain commas. (Or, if they do, it should be obvious how to add the quotes if they are needed for those fields.) For the input shown, you should get something like the following from the above script:

Code:

HostName,"Z shell (zsh)","11.10.0,REV=2005.01.08.05.16",/
HostName,"Tripwire Enterprise Agent","8.2.3",/usr/local/tripwire/te/agent
HostName,"SEA client support sunOS v5","2.4.1.3",/

The script you provide looks really good. the only problem is that the host name does not seem to be coming out.

Code:

,"ZFS (Root)","11.10.0,REV=2006.05.18.02.15",/
,"ZFS (Usr)","11.10.0,REV=2006.05.18.02.15",/
,"The Info-Zip (zip) compression utility","11.10.0,REV=2005.01.08.05.16",/
,"The Zip compression library","11.10.0,REV=2005.01.08.05.16",/
,"Solaris Zones (Root)","11.10.0,REV=2005.01.21.15.53",/
,"Solaris Zones (Usr)","11.10.0,REV=2005.01.21.15.53",/
,"Z shell (zsh)","11.10.0,REV=2005.01.08.05.16",/
,"Tripwire Enterprise Agent","8.2.3",/usr/local/tripwire/te/agent
,"SEA client support sunOS v5","2.4.1.3",/
....so on and so forth.....

any chance we can get the host name at the begining?

Hi

Don, This issue has been resolved. is it possible you can explain your code? It would be a great help to me. Also are there any books you recomend I read? or did you get your understanding of scripting from experience?

to resolve my issue, I added the following to your code.

Code:

 >> /tmp/tmp.pkg
sleep 10
cat /tmp/tmp.pkg | while read LINE
do 
   echo "`uname -n` $LINE" >> /tmp/`uname -n`.pk
done

so the final code looks like this:

Code:

rm /tmp/tmp.pkg
rm /tmp/`uname -n`.pk
#host=$(uname -n)
pkginfo -l | /usr/xpg4/bin/awk -v host="$host" '
/NAME:/ {
    gsub(/(^ *NAME: *)|( *$)/, "")
    printf("%s,\"%s\",", host, $0)
    next
}
/VERSION:/ {
    gsub(/(^ *VERSION: *)|( *$)/, "")
    printf("\"%s\",", $0)
    next
}
/BASEDIR:/ {
    gsub(/(^ *BASEDIR: *)|( *$)/, "")
    print
}' >> /tmp/tmp.pkg
sleep 10
cat /tmp/tmp.pkg | while read LINE
do 
   echo "`uname -n` $LINE" >> /tmp/`uname -n`.pk
done

I commented out the host portion as it did not seem to work for me.

Thank you soo much for your help and assistance.

I have a Solaris 2.6 box flagging an "Error block: 308918" in the messages file when I execute a pkginfo -l. pkginfo with no flags returns no errors. I think I need to use format to mark this block and then restore the database used by pkginfo for backup. Any advice/input welcome. Thanks
