Not exactly sure what you want. To print only the blocks beginning 'Switch name complete'?. If so, let's parse the data and see what we can do... 
my ($output,$match_flag);
open (DATA, "/export/home/webadm/scripts/backup_scripts/backup_data/1s
+tnodupe");
while (<DATA>) {
  if (/^Switch name complete/) { # match this
    $output .= $_;
    $match_flag=1;
  }
  elsif (/^\s/ && $match_flag) { # if correct, match this as well
    $output .= $_;
  }
  elsif (/^\S/) { # invalid, so don't match, or match following lines
                  # beginning with whitespace
    $match_flag=0;
  }
}
close(DATA);
print $output;

That strips out only the sections beginning with 'Switch name complete'. (Note, I didn't test, but I think syntax is OK).
