I'm very new to unix shell scripting. Im also new here in this forum. I'm a SQL Server DBA but I'm slowly learning Oracle and Sybase DB. Our Oracle and Sybase are on Unix platforms. Im slowly learning Linux Admin and Shell Scripting to automate tasks.
I'm writing a script to view DB error logs. I'd like my script to ask me how many lines from the logs do I want to read and if I want to grep a word.
I use the if..else construct. the command after the "if" is working but after the "else", if blank, I just want my script to ignore the "grep"
Code:
## script
echo "Enter number of lines to view:"
read lines
echo "grep a word?"
read word
if [ word=$word ]
then
tail -$lines /soft/prd/logs/sybase/SGPRD1_SQL.log | grep $word
else
tail -$lines /soft/prd/logs/sybase/SGPRD1_SQL.log
fi

zegrep
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.
