Assuming your log files generated with timestamps and log file is updated continuously..
log file sample-
Code:
2012-07-18 09:04:03,428  
2012-07-18 09:04:14,706  
2012-07-18 09:04:28,766  
2012-07-18 09:04:33,293  
2012-07-18 09:04:44,135  
2012-07-18 09:04:55,203

Now we need to get 3 hours old time stamp.. this is as per the time stamp from log file
Code:
var_date=`date --date="3 hours ago" +%Y-%m-%d_%H:%M | sed 's/_/ /g'`
echo $var_date
2012-07-18 06:15

Now to search data for the 3 hours of span ..

Code:
cat file.log | sed '1,/'$var_date'/d'

now you can grep what you want..
