I can't come to think of any other way than just grep, but hopefully someone can give me a hint...
In a script I am working on, I need to get which scsi channel a disk is connected to.
I know it's devicename, which is sdc.
With this knowledge, I run hdparm -I /dev/sdc and grep for "Model number:",
through awk, I get it's model number, and run the command scsiadd -p and gep for the model number.
I get the line with the model number,
what I need though, it the line just right above.
I need to find out what scsi channel the disk is connected to so that I can runt scsiadd -r 3 0 0 0 (in this case)
Now is just the question, through the way I am grepping for model number, is there anyway I can get the line above?
The extraction of the numbers I'll do with more greps and awk's (unless someone has another idea).
I hope I am making myself understood enough.. I'm getting frustrated and are not entirely sure I describe my problem in a good enough way

Zaxxon and I posted about the same time. We take the same general approach but vary in our actual tactics. The exit() condition in mine allows you to test the return code of the command to see if it worked, ie, to put in a script, pipeline or if statement and fail appropriately.
Important: What Operating System and version are you running?
What hardware do you have?
Posting hardware enquiry comands out of context means nothing without knowledge of the command syntax and the hardware.
What is the output from:
This should produce a unique identity mappable to the SCSI ID given your knowledge of your Operating System and hardware configuration.
For example: I am grepping "Hello" from a file and there are 10 matches. So all ten lines with match will get stored into a variable($match). Now I want to ignore those lines which have "Hi" present in that.
Currently I tried this: match = grep "Hello" file | grep -v "Hi" file

Hi,
I have a list of zipped files. I want to grep for a string in all files and get a list of file names that contain the string. But without unzipping them before that, more like using something like gzcat.
