Re^2: Regex to extract certain lines only from command output/text file.

Check your script, the output indicated in your post is really different to what your code really shows. Below is the output of your script:

7 hostname12 Generic-legacy 10000000AB210ACF6 ---
                             10000000AB210ACF4 2:5:4
                             10000000AB210ACF4 2:3:4
                             10000000AB210ACF6 3:5:4
9 hostname13 Generic        10000000AB2A3006A 3:5:2
                             5001438002A3004A ---
                             5001438002A30048 2:3:3
                             5001438002A30048 2:5:2
                             5001438002A30048 2:5:2
9 hostname13 Generic        10000000AB2A3006A 3:5:2
                             10000000AB2A30068 2:5:2
21 HOSTNAME   Generic

According, to the OP,

9 hostname13 Generic        10000000AB2A3006A 3:5:2
                             10000000AB2A30068 2:5:2

Is not suppose to be shown in the final output. Your script even modified some info. like this:

9 hostname13 Generic        10000000AB2A3006A 3:5:2
                             5001438002A3004A ---
                             5001438002A30048 2:3:3
                             5001438002A30048 2:5:2
                             5001438002A30048 2:5:2
9 hostname13 Generic        10000000AB2A3006A 3:5:2
                             10000000AB2A30068 2:5:2

The OP has only one "9 hostname13 Generic", so how did it become two, in the final output.

Hi, In response to: The OP has only one "9 hostname13 Generic", so how did it become two, in the final output. I added an extra one in the __DATA__ section, for testing purposes. Only one was showing in the output (the last one in __DATA__ , due to an empty line at the end of the same __DATA__ section. (The fix is also posted in one of the replies) Thanks. Arnaud	[reply]
