Wrench awk script issue redirecting to multiple files after matching pattern
Hi All

I am having one awk and sed requirement for the below problem.
I tried multiple options in my sed or awk and right output is not coming out.

Problem Description

###############################################################

I am having a big file say file having repeated patterns . I want to print the text in between these patters along with these patterns in multiple text files means I want to redirect the output to multiple text files.

file

############################################################
Code:
///// BMSNSMS ,.KSKSK
/// BM_WATER//////////
///JSHSHS L;LLLLLLLL
module Template 
input {
}
output { B 
}
port {  se 

}
///// NANAMSNSMS ,.KSKSK
/// BM_WATER//////////
///jajaJSHSHS L;LLLLLLLL
module1 Template1 
input1 {
}
output1 { B 
}
port{  se 

}
port {
C

}
///// KLALALNANAMSNSMS ,.KSKSK
/// BM_WATER//////////
///KAKAjajaJSHSHS L;LLLLLLLL
module2 Template2 
input2 {
}
output2 { CD 
}
port3{  se 

}
port {
D

}
///// AAKLALALNANAMSNSMS ,.KSKSK
/// BM_WATER//////////
///aaKAKAjajaJSHSHS L;LLLLLLLL
module3 Template3
input3 {
}
output3 { CD 
}
port4{  se 

}
port1 {
D

}

###############################################################

So we can see that BM_WATER is a repeated pattern
I want output as shown below

File1
###################################
Code:
///// BMSNSMS ,.KSKSK
/// BM_WATER//////////
///JSHSHS L;LLLLLLLL
module Template 
input {
}
output { B 
}
port {  se 

}


File 2

Code:
///// NANAMSNSMS ,.KSKSK
/// BM_WATER//////////
///jajaJSHSHS L;LLLLLLLL
module1 Template1 
input1 {
}
output1 { B 
}
port{  se 

}
port {
C

}


FILE 3

Code:
///// KLALALNANAMSNSMS ,.KSKSK
/// BM_WATER//////////
///KAKAjajaJSHSHS L;LLLLLLLL
module2 Template2 
input2 {
}
output2 { CD 
}
port3{  se 

}
port {
D

}

FILE 4

Code:
///// AAKLALALNANAMSNSMS ,.KSKSK
/// BM_WATER//////////
///aaKAKAjajaJSHSHS L;LLLLLLLL
module3 Template3
input3 {
}
output3 { CD 
}
port4{  se 

}
port1 {
D

}

I tried this but not working
Code:
awk '/BM_WATER/{x="F"++i;}{print > x;}' file
