Hello all. I have a weird problem. When I run this PERL one-liner by hand it prints everything within the appropriate range...
perl -ne 'print if /NTHOST\) Total/ .. /ANR0403I/' /tmp/TIVOLI.OUT-activity-report This prints up the summary of a Tivoli backup for a Windows client pruned from the entire activity log. When I put this into a shell script it doesn't pick out each host it prints the entire activity log each time a host is called within the loop (there are 67 hosts for this one Tivoli server). #!/bin/bash TIVOLIOUT=/tmp/TIVOLI.OUT-activity-report HOSTNAMES=`perl -ne 'print if /ANE4952I/ .. /ANR0403I/' $TIVOLIOUT | awk -F: ' {print $5}' | awk -F\) ' {print $1}' | sort | uniq` ## ## Process the hostnames ## for i in $HOSTNAMES do perl -ne 'print if /${i}\) Total/ .. /ANR0403I/' $TIVOLIOUT > /tmp/blah.${i} done I know I am using awk in here and this could probably be done in PERL but I am a beginner in PERL and am used to shell scripting. If someone knows how to make this work within this shell script or knows how to do this entirely within PERL I would be very grateful. Thanks in advance.
