Hi All,

I have an Output from a log file which is something like as follows..

***** CDR and SDR Statistics****
Wed Feb 25 00:05:00 EST 2009
*********CDR and SDR QUEUE STATUS*****
Queue busy wait msgs
cdr 2 2 4
sdr 2 0 2
******CWAY CROSS STATISTICS***********

sdr.159 free 0:13.70 8.3
sdr.160 free 0:20.50 7.1
sdr.161 free 0:14.14 6.1


This info is written to the log file every 5 minutes(same as the above one).

Requirement:

I need to get the count of the msgs for CDR and SDR Induvidually every hour in a sperate file .Is there an way to do this by some script.The name of the log file is mg_stat.log

Something like this?

Code:

awk '
$1=="cdr"{print $4}
$1=="sdr"{print $4}
' file

Regards

Hi Franklin,

Thanks a lot for your reply..

should this be in the same script which produces this log or a differnt one??

awk '
$1=="cdr"{print $4}
$1=="sdr"{print $4}
' output.txt

You can use a separate script or at the end of the same script.

Regards
