What operations? You could use awk instead of tail to achieve that.

For example i have a command whose output is like this:

Code:
# PARTITION | MASTER_ROLE |STATE_M|STATE_S|MASTER_ATOMICID | SLAVE_ATOMICID | DIFF_ATOMICID |
#-----------|-------------|-------|-------|----------------|----------------|---------------|
 acc1  |     PRIMARY |VALID  |VALID  |     1718408937 |     1718408861 |            76 |
 acc2  |     PRIMARY |VALID  |VALID  |     1718408937 |     1718408861 |            76 |
 acc3  |     PRIMARY |VALID  |VALID  |     1718408937 |     1718408861 |            76 |
 acc4  |     PRIMARY |VALID  |VALID  |     1718408937 |     1718408861 |            76 |
 acc5  |     PRIMARY |VALID  |VALID  |     1701569594 |     1701569423 |           171 |
 acc6  |     PRIMARY |VALID  |VALID  |     1701569594 |     1701569423 |           171 |
 acc7  |     PRIMARY |VALID  |VALID  |     1701569594 |     1701569423 |           171 |
 acc8  |     PRIMARY |VALID  |VALID  |     1701569594 |     1701569423 |           171 |
 acc9  |     PRIMARY |VALID  |VALID  |     1749603110 |     1749603038 |            72 |

Now if this value is stored in variable "check" then how would i delete the first few un-necessary lines, cut all the columns except last column and check if the value isn't greater than 500.

These type of operations i have to perform. Please suggest some way. Thanks

Do you want all the selected values of the last column in your variable in this case?

Yes, and check if any value from the last column is greater than 500.

Can you explain what you're trying to achieve with your script instead of asking how to use which command?

There could be another (better) approach to achieve your task.

Well I am performing some system checks, and the system is being used in a live GSM network. The command i quoted in last is one of the checks. I've to check if the value of last column isn't greater than 500. Because if it is, then we got some serious issues regarding synchronization. and i am writing the script for these checks. And the only problem is with some commands i have to run as other user like user1.

Just point me in the right direction. Thank you very much spending your time on this.

And what to do if you have more then one value > 500? In that case you'll get several lines.
