Search a string and print the rest of line
Hi Guys,

I need to search a string and print the rest of the lines...

input:
Code:
8 0   90 1 0 59 20 2488 96 30006dde372 S ? 0:00 /etc/opt/SUNWconn/atm/bin/atmsnmpd -n

output:
Code:
00 /etc/opt/SUNWconn/atm/bin/atmsnmpd -n

Actually i don even need the first "00".. any suggestions is appreciated.. i am trying to split it using split . But its throwing an error.

Magesh

Got the answer.. as soon as i posted it..

Code:
echo "8 0   90 1 0 59 20 2488 96 30006dde372 S ? 0:00 /etc/opt/SUNWconn/atm/bin/atmsnmpd -n"|awk '{ if($4 == "1"){substr("^    ","");print}}'|awk -F":" '{print $2}'

But Guys, If found one issue with it.. if we have more than one ":", then my logic gets a hit.. can anyone help me in getting the rest of the string starting from the first : .

Thanks..

so in the 0:00:00, you need to last "00" part?
try:
Code:
awk -F"[ :]" '{print $(NF-2),$(NF-1),$NF}'

try
Code:
 
$ echo  $str
8 0 90 1 0 59 20 2488 96 30006dde372 S ? 0:00 /etc/opt/SUNWconn/atm/bin/atmsnmpd -n
 
$ echo $str | sed -e 's/^.*00//g'
 /etc/opt/SUNWconn/atm/bin/atmsnmpd -n

actually i am not sure.. what you are saying.. but this is wat i want

Code:
I/P

8 0   90 1 0 59 20 2488 96 30006dde372 S ? 0:00 /etc/opt/SUNWconn/atm/bin/atmsnmpd : -n adnhld : 12364

O/P:
/etc/opt/SUNWconn/atm/bin/atmsnmpd : -n adnhld : 12364

But my logic will give only
Code:
00 /etc/opt/SUNWconn/atm/bin/atmsnmpd

Your code was giving me an error

Code:
echo "8 0   90 1 0 59 20 2488 96 30006dde372 S ? 0:00 /etc/opt/SUNWconn/atm/bin/atmsnmpd -n"|awk -F"[ :]" '{print $(NF-2),$(NF-1),$NF}'
awk: trying to access field -1
 record number 1

Thought you need that part. but actually you don't.
Apologies.

try:
Code:
awk -F"[ :]" '{print $(NF-1),$NF}'

I didn't understand. as per the i/p you posted, its working..
Code:
/home->echo '8 0   90 1 0 59 20 2488 96 30006dde372 S ? 0:00 /etc/opt/SUNWconn/atm/bin/atmsnmpd : -n adnhld : 12364'| awk -F" /" '{print $NF}'
etc/opt/SUNWconn/atm/bin/atmsnmpd : -n adnhld : 12364
/home->

if you need "/" also in the beginning,

Code:
/home->echo '8 0   90 1 0 59 20 2488 96 30006dde372 S ? 0:00 /etc/opt/SUNWconn/atm/bin/atmsnmpd : -n adnhld : 12364'| awk -F" /" '{print "/"$NF}'
/etc/opt/SUNWconn/atm/bin/atmsnmpd : -n adnhld : 12364
/home->
