awk substitution
Hi all,

I need some help with substitution in awk.
Is it possible to substitute field from awk output with string from file?
For example:
Code:
zcat /SMS/CDR/cdr_TC/callLogs*_*_2013092710*.gz | sed 's/:/;/g' | awk -F";" '{if($2==1 && $10~/389123456789/) print $36";"$37}'  

2;19733248

I want to substitute 2;19733248 with GSM;GSM_ABS_SUB_HLR from errors.txt file.
errors.txt
Code:
.................................................................
GSM;33555968;GSM_ABNORMAL_DLG
GSM;19733249;GSM_ABS_SUB_DETACHED_HLR
GSM;19667713;GSM_ABS_SUB_DETACHED_MSC
GSM;19733248;GSM_ABS_SUB_HLR
GSM;19667712;GSM_ABS_SUB_MSC
GSM;19733250;GSM_ABS_SUB_PAGEFAIL_HLR
GSM;19667714;GSM_ABS_SUB_PAGEFAIL_MSC
GSM;19727879;GSM_ABS_SUB_SM_DEREG_4_GPRS_HLR
GSM;19662343;GSM_ABS_SUB_SM_DEREG_4_GPRS_MSC
GSM;19727875;GSM_ABS_SUB_SM_DEREG_4_NON_GPRS_HLR
............................................................

Thank you in advance.

Code:
sed 's/:/;/g' | awk -F";"

can be simplified to
Code:
awk -F ':|;'

(As usual, use nawk vs awk with Solaris).

Thanks pravin27 for the prompt answer, but in this case the conditional {if($2==1 && $10~/389123456789/); doesn't work.
Code:
zcat /SMS/CDR/cdr_TC/callLogs*_*_2013092710*.gz | sed 's/:/;/g' | awk -F";" '{if($2==1 && $10~/389123456789/); sub(2,"GSM",$36); sub(19733248,"GSM_ABS_SUB_HLR",$37); print $36";"$37}' 

    0;0
    0;0
    0;0
    0;0
    0;0
    GSM;GSM_ABS_SUB_HLR
    0;0
    0;0
    0;0

Because errors.txt is too long, is there options to calling external script or command (grep for example) inside awk in action part to get values from errors.txt?
I read about the system() function in awk but it isn't clear for me enough.

@jlliagre: Thank you. I'll keep that in mind.

Not clear with your requirement. Please provide some part of your input file and desire output file.

Thanks MadeInGermany,

I've tested your suggestion
Code:
cat /SMS/CDR/cdr_TC/callLogs*_*_2013092710*.gz|sed 's/:/;/g' |awk -F";" '(NR==FNR) {A[$2]=$1 FS $3; next}($2==1 && $10~/389123456789/) {print $0"|"A[$37]}' /tmp/errors.txt -

13E075CB2;    1;    2;    8;    none;none;       389123456789;1;1;       389123456789;1;1;    000000000000000;       389123456789;1;1;    284010160340741;       389123456789;    20130925075430;    20130927095618;
    8;       0;      6;      000000000000;      0;     0;    11e6b1e22;       389123456789;1;1;    284010160340741;    0;0;        35988000301;        35988000014;    2;19733248;|GSM;GSM_ABS_SUB_HLR

This is not exactly substitution but i think it is better to have number and explanation of the error. Thank you again.

Hi again,

In the example in previous post how can i improve the output if i have different type of errors with the same value.
For example:
Code:
zcat /SMS/CDR/cdr_TC/callLogs*_*_2013092710*.gz|sed 's/:/;/g' |awk -F";" '{if(($36==14 || $36==21)  && $37==1) print $36";"$37}'

    14;1
    14;1
    21;1
    14;1
    14;1
    14;1
    21;1

errors.txt (Type;NumericValue;Definition)
Code:
CRB_INFRASTRUCTURE;1;CRB_INFRASTRUCTURE_NO_ROUTE
CRB_INFRASTRUCTURE;2;CRB_INFRASTRUCTURE_EP_UNAVAIL
CODIAC;1;CODIAC_SUB_PREPAID_SKINT
CODIAC;7;CODIAC_UNKNOWN_RESULT

In the other words how to check $36(type) first and then $37(value) from errors.txt?
It is not problem to change errors.txt like this:
Code:
14;1;CRB_INFRASTRUCTURE_NO_ROUTE
14;2;CRB_INFRASTRUCTURE_EP_UNAVAIL
21;1;CODIAC_SUB_PREPAID_SKINT
21;7;CODIAC_UNKNOWN_RESULT
