No in fact I was wrong also lol, I thought it was day of the week "Mardi" for tuesday in french, but it is the month lol

so no problem anymore from this side

and for the moment I just count per hour in a quite silly maner but sufficient:

Code:

my_date=`date '+%Y-%m-%d'`
path="my_path/my.log"
file="my_result_"$my_date".log"
grep_expr=`date +'%b %d'`

echo "hourly grep on error_code_Z">>$file
grep "$grep_expr 00" $path | grep error_code_Z | wc -l>>$file
grep "$grep_expr 01" $path | grep error_code_Z | wc -l>>$file
grep "$grep_expr 02" $path | grep error_code_Z | wc -l>>$file
[...]
grep "$grep_expr 22" $path | grep error_code_Z | wc -l>>$file
grep "$grep_expr 23" $path | grep error_code_Z | wc -l>>$file

And I do it again for each error_code on I wish I want to make some stats

This way I obtain very nice curves under excel Smilie

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.
