Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Outputting data from log file to report Post 303029440 by RudiC on Saturday 26th of January 2019 08:41:30 AM

Does the sample given in post #1 represent the log file's structure one to one? I guess you don't have two alternating consecutive line types but quite some more ("watchdog"), and mayhap the pairs split, like some initial lines, and then some end lines.


Try this adapted - easily done by the interested person - version of my earlier proposal:

Code:
 awk -F, -vOFS=,  'match ($0, /, .*transmission from/) {sub (substr ($0, RSTART, RLENGTH), ","); getline X; $0 = $0 FS X; print $1, $2, $5, $6}' file

This would not help if the interesting lines are not adjacent. For that case, you'd need to identify a characteristic connecting the two lines.

The uulog program can be used to display entries in the UUCP log file. It can select the entries for a particular system or a particular user. You can use it to see what has happened to your queued jobs in the past. Different options may be used to select which parts of the file to display. OPTIONS
-#, -n lines, --lines lines Here '#' is a number; e.g., `-10'. The specified number of lines is displayed from the end of the log file. The default is to dis- play the entire log file, unless the -f, -F, or --follow options are used, in which case the default is to display 10 lines. -s system, --system system Display only log entries pertaining to the specified system. -u, --user user Display only log entries pertaining to the specified user. -D --debuglog Display the debugging log file. -S, --statslog Display the statistics log file. -F, --follow Keep displaying the log file forever, printing new lines as they are appended to the log file. -f system, --follow=system Keep displaying the log file forever, displaying only log entries pertaining to the specified system.
